I vote for:
require 'watir' include Watir (it's magic anyway, it won't hurt) ie = IE.new (let people see a blank browser) ie.goto("http://www.google.com ") Show people the steps and show them later how to abbreviate it with a small explanation of the Ruby idiom. It's also important to explain each line. What, I believe, it will result in is a deeper understanding as opposed to just knowing how to do tasks with canned food. A problem I have as a relative latecomer to programming is that I know how to do certain things, but not why. It makes problem solving difficult. My 2 cents.

You iterate until it is done. :) If it were me, I would have done require 'watir' include Watir (it's magic anyway, it won't hurt) ie = IE.new (let people see a blank browser) ie.goto(" http://www.google.com <http://www.google.com> ") My line of thought is to have as many steps as possible. As you said, at this point everything is magic anyway. What I would like is to hear from people that just started using Watir. Is this require 'watir' include Watir (it's magic anyway, it won't hurt) ie = IE.new (let people see a blank browser) ie.goto("http://www.google.com ") more clear than this? require 'watir' ie = Watir::IE.start("http://www.google.com/") Zeljko ************************************************************************************************************************** Everything in this e-mail and attachments relating to the official business of MultiChoice Africa is proprietary to the company.
