[Wtr-general] problem in entering values in span field

[Charley Baker]

Try this:

require 'watir'
test_site='C:\\aa.htm'
ie=Watir::IE.start(test_site)
ie.span(:id,"tradeDate").text_field(:index,2).set("01/01/2000")

The confusion lies in trying to set a text field among two that have the
same value, one being hidden.
