Hello,  
I want to automate my flex application, and i found that Funfx and Ruby  
is the best one to automate a flex application. I was able to recognize  
text and button as well combobox but i am not able to recognize the  
checkbox, radiobutton etc…

The way how i recognized the textinput, button and the combobox is

@ie.combo\_box(“assetType”).select(:item\_renderer =\> “UGC”)  
@ie.text\_area(“assetText”).input(:text =\> “1376869”)  
@ie.button(“update”).click

can any one suggest me the same way how i can use radiobutton, checkbox  
etc…
