hi Zach,
that works as a selector when I do
doc = Nokogiri::HTML.parse( response.body )
doc.xpath(selector)
returns the correct dom elements
but when used with click_link_within I get the error
Nokogiri::CSS::SyntaxError Exception: unexpected ‘//’ after ‘’

Sorry for the late reply, but this is a bug in webrat not a nokogiri
issue. I’ve created a ticket for it at lighthouse:

I wrote an ugly duckpunch that fixes the error for now. I have submitted
it as a comment on the ticket
