[Wtr-general] Is there a global variable to control the scripts execution speed

There's not an execution control variable, but instead of sleep which is
unreliable, the best bet when using Watir 1.5 is to use the wait_until
method.

For example,

  do something
  ....
  wait_until{ ie.button(:value, 'Click Me').exists?)   # poll for some
control to show up with defaults of timeout:60 seconds, poll every .5
seconds


hth,

Charley
