+Click a specific DOM element by one of its attributes and that attribute's value.
+
+_Parameters_::
+
+*browser* - a reference to the browser window or container element to be tested
+
+*element* - the kind of element to click. Must be one of the elements recognized by Watir.
+Some common values are :link, :button, :image, :div, :span.
+
+*how* - the element attribute used to identify the specific element. Valid values depend on the kind of element.
+Common values: :text, :id, :title, :name, :class, :href (:link only)

+Select an option from a specific drop down list.  The drop down (select list) is id
+
+_Parameters_::
+
+*browser* - a reference to the browser window to be tested
+
+*how* - the element attribute used to identify the specific element. Valid values depend on the kind of element.
+Common values: :text, :id, :title, :name, :class, :href (:link only)
+
+*what* - a string or a regular expression to be found in the *how* attribute that uniquely identifies the element.
+
+*desc* - a string containing a message or description intended to appear in the log and/or report output
+
+_Example_
+
+  # html for a link element:
+  # <a href="http://pragmaticprogrammer.com/titles/ruby/" id="one" name="book">Pickaxe</a>
+  click_no_wait(browser, :link, :text, 'Pickaxe')
