The Watir user guide, installed as part of Watir, has an example:

"Watir allows access to frame objects by identifying them by their name 
attribute. This is the form that Watir takes to access a frame:
   ie.frame("menu")

To access individual objects within that frame, you prefix the object 
using the Watir code above. If we had a hyperlink in the menu frame: 
Click Menu Item, we could click it like this:
   ie.frame("menu").link(:text, "Click Menu Item").click


See [installation dir]/watir_bonus/doc/watir_user_guide.html
