I'm seeing an annoying issue that I suspect has to do with objects inside page frames and Selenium and Watir-Webdriver.
I brought up part of it already in this post: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/watir-general/gIgtHbFxfbw/discussion Here's a similar issue: If I reference some text on a page like this: @browser.frame(:index=>0).table(:class=>"itemSummary").td(:class=>"shorttext", :index=>0).text ...it will work fine. I get the text I need, just as expected. However, that's a nasty long bit of code and I don't want to have to use that string every time I need that page object. So I defined a method. def site_id @browser.frame(:index=>0).table(:class=>"itemSummary").td(:class=>"shorttext", :index=>0).text end Sadly, when I call the method in my scripts, I get... *Selenium::WebDriver::Error::ObsoleteElementError: Element not found in the cache* * * There's no way it's an obsolete element, because the class containing that method gets instantiated *immediately* before the method is called. Is this a known issue? Any ideas for a way around this that will allow me to continue to use my method instead of the explicit call to the object? -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support.
