[Wtr-general] Finding the name of objects

[Ken]

I just got started with this and am trying to write a simple script to get my feet wet.  I was following the googlesearch.rb case that is provided.  My question is how do you find the name of the object that you want to perform an action with?  For example:

ie.text_field(:name, "q").set("pickaxe") # q is the name of the search field

How do you know that q is the name of the search field?  I viewed the source of the page and eventually found the field named q but it was not obvious or easy.  It was so murky that if I didnt know already that the fields name was q I never would have found it.  Is there a simple way to identify a list box, text field, radio button...etc?

Thanks.
