I've attached my working code for a short test, when manually putting
pages/links in, so you can see what I'm trying to do.

Below I've put what my first attempt for simplifying before I decided to
post a question.

I want to be able to put a method that accepts a string variable and
then runs a process using that string.


Also, thanks to everyone for responding,

def verify(x)
print "Verifying ", v, "."
ie.link(:id, x).exist?
print "Actual Result:"
  if ie.text.include? x
  puts "  Test Passed. Found the test string: ", x, ".  Actual Results
match expected Results."
  ie.link(:href, x).click
else
  puts "  Test Failed!  Could not find: ", x, "."
end
end
