So basically the test never starts because IE is never finished loading
the items on the page?  I've witnessed this also with slow-loading
images on our staging servers.  IE hangs out (no pun intended) until the
final image shows and then tests away.

It may be a low-tech resolution, but if I'm not testing the images, for
instance, I go into IE setting and disable images from showing before I
run my tests.  You could also easily do this with streaming/multimedia
content in Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced.

So, as long as you're not testing the functionality of the streaming
content that should allow the test to run.  If you are, it may be the
one component that you have to test manually.

That's my non-watir-specific .02.

Thanks,
Adam

Subject: [Wtr-general] Is there a way to over ride Watir's checking if
IE isbusy?

I am trying to test a website that has streaming content, and it seems
that because this content is streaming, IE never returns that it is no
longer busy.  Is there some way around this?  I am unable to do anything
on the site in these cases.

Thanks,

Nathan
