When I load watir-webdriver I'm getting a message I've never seen
before:
"Blocklist::_loadBlocklistFromFile: blocklist is disabled"
Apart from that message it appears to be loading normally.
I believe that this is related to some odd behaviour I've been getting
from the timeout exception class. It seems to be interpreting intervals
incorrectly. For example, watir's wait_until_present(0.1) waits for 60
seconds.
I've stopped getting the Blocklist message, but Watir's wait methods
still only default to 60 seconds or indefinite. I've tried completely
resetting the profile and removing all add-ons and plug-ins from
Firefox.
It appears to time out correctly when waiting for an indexed element,
but fails when dealing with name or id. Why?!
irb(main):018:0> b.table(:index,1).wait_until_present(1)
Watir::Wait::TimeoutError: timed out after 1 seconds, waiting for
{:index=>1, :tag_name=>"table"} to become present
irb(main):019:0> b.table(:id,'n').wait_until_present(1)
Timeout::Error: Timeout::Error

It's also doing the same thing with a totally seperate install or Ruby
1.9..2 and a seperate install of Firefox. Looks like I'll have to
reformat this laptop
