The page returned in the ScriptResult will only be different if a new 
page was loaded as a result of executing the javascript.  In this case, 
no new page will be loaded so the same page should be returned.

I don't see anything wrong with the code you have provided - I would 
have expected this to work.  Can you provide a more complete sample?
