Selenium testing in spite of browser differences

If you're using Selenium table tests for functional testing of your web app, you could have tried testing for browser specific issues. I used selenium vars for that (here in rsel format).

store_eval "if(navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().indexOf('safari')\
              != -1){'some_locator';} \
              else {'some other locator';}",
           'specific_part'
assert_element_present '//div//${specific_part}'

*But* most probably, there should be a better way to do this. We used the trick above to look for specific inline style, which is handled differently in safari and firefox ( a space added after a semicolon in safari). We eventually found assert_element_visible.
