  • Have you tried using xpath? It searches based on the dom-tree. xpath-tutorial – AndrasCsanyi Apr 14 '15 at 8:46

    You'll need to switch focus to the iframe window. Please search StackOverflow for answers and then show us your code if you're still having trouble. – FDM Apr 14 '15 at 10:08

    I voted to close this question as unclear what you are asking, because without more information its not possible to answer this question. We also need the (ruby) code you are currently using to drive the watir-webdriver test. – Niels van Reijmersdal Apr 20 '15 at 18:11

In order to access elements in frames you first need to switch to them.

Try to use driver.switch_to.frame "iframeResult" first and afterwards try to find or interact with the input elements.
