hi i am using Watir(web application testing in ruby) to automate a JSP  
page. i successfully automated a html page but when i am following same  
process to automate jsp page, the watir commands are not able to  
recognize the objects or properties of that particular page.  
can anyone help me to get the properties of a JSP page using watir.

I think we’re going to need an example here… A JSP page should be  
identical to an HTML page from the client’s point of view.
