Re: [Htmlunit-user] javascript mutation of pages

[Casey C. <cra...@na...>]

I'm using htmlunit-1.5 (the binaries) that I downloaded from
sourceforge about a month ago.

When javascript is modifying the page (or the form in my case) as a
result of clicking a button in a form (that doesn't actually submit
the form, the javascript method called returns false) where should
those changes show up? In the existing HtmlPage/HtmlForm, or should I
capture to the return value of the click() call?
