Re: [Htmlunit-user] Hello Again

[<mbr...@vi...>]

After some research I believe the Validation controls are IE specific and are 
supposed to be disabled when using any other browser (typical Microsoft 
tactic).  I tested this with Netscape 7.1 and found that yes indeed the 
validation controls are disabled.  So my current thoery is that ASP.NET thinks 
that HtmlUnit is an IE compliant browser.  I remember there being a way of 
configuring the browser identity of HtmlUnit.  Perhaps that will fix the 
problem.
