********************************************************************************
I have tried to elaborate on what i was looking for : hope this is clear

Snippet of my code(ruby):

system("D:\ruby\bin\selenium.cmd")  --> This opens a batch file which 
runs selenium SERVER on which i need to run the below given methods!

#Creating an Object to call Methods   --> Here I am creating an object 
from which i intend calling methods which exists another class file
masterload = MasterLoad.new()


# Start cvis on the given URL              --> Method 1 ..calling the 
webapplication
selenium = masterload.cvis_start(url)


# Log into Cvis               --> Method 2 ..logging into the web 
application
masterload.cvis_login(userid, password)


#Select a Client            --> Method 3..    I have multiple methods 
like this
masterload.cvis_selectClient(clientName)

Question1 : All the methods mentioned requires selenium 
server(system("D:\ruby\bin\selenium.cmd")) to be running, selenium 
server invokes an browser on which these methods are executed.
        Problem i am facing is once selenium server starts, how does it 
go to Method1...as far as my little knowledge is concern until it comes 
out of the system method,  it doesnt go to the second method.
        What i am looking for is I want to start selenium server plus 
run all the methods.

Cheers
