Take screenshot of internal div with scrolling with Watir webdriver

Question

I already save my screenshots of the entire page using this command successfully:

@browser.screenshot.save "html-report/#{screenshot_name}"

However, the screen has changed and now it contains an internal div with scrolling, containing the crucial information that I want to capture.

Instead of using the command above to capture the whole page, is there a way to capture just the all contents of this scrolling div?

Thank you!

Do you really need a screenshot of div's contents? What about just taking the text or html of the div? — Justin Ko, Jun 19 '14 at 02:11
That's actually a good idea. However this DIV is actually a sale receipt so it would be interesting to have the "real" thing screenshotted. In any case I will talk to the business people and see if that's enough. Thanks for the idea! — Matheus Felipe, Jun 19 '14 at 19:00
@paul, the suggestion would not really answer the question. If you are looking for a code example, it would have just been `@browser.div.text` or `@browser.div.html`. — Justin Ko, Jan 27 '15 at 13:51
