This is probably the source of your error ^^ what is being returned by
get_list_entries_container(type) may not be nil, but apparently the
class Watir::TableRow does not respond to the .length method.

This seems suspicious (though unrelated to your problem). The return
value of puts is nil. Are you sure you want to actually send that to
output at that point?
