Hi

i am not able to close the java script popup windows using watir.

require ‘watir’  
require ‘win32ole’

ie = Watir::IE.new  
@user = ‘username’  
@pass = ‘password’  
@url = ‘internal site’  
@login\_title = "Connect to "  
ie.goto(@url)

Watir.autoit.WinWait(‘Connect to ‘)  
Watir.autoit.Send(@user)  
Watir.autoit.Send(’{TAB}’)  
Watir.autoit.Send(@pass)  
Watir.autoit.Send(’{ENTER}’)

it opens the authentication window… but does not enters username and  
password.

pls help
