[HtmlUnit] Re: javascript and WATF

[Brian K. <bt...@ne...>]

Thanks for the info.... I am trying out htmlunit 1.1pre1 right now and =
am experiencing some issues.  If I disable javascript all seems to work =
fine, but if I turn it on and request the same page I get the following =
error:

Error loading javascript:

Hi Brian,

  > Have you considered utilizing rhino for your javascript support?
=20
 That is what I am using :-)
=20
 Rhino implements the core javascript language for me - the part that I=20
 have to implement are all the browser specific host objects.  Things=20
 like window, document, location etc.
=20
  > Also have you seen the new WATF (Web Application Testing Framework)?
=20
 I heard about it for the first time a couple of days ago but haven't =
had=20
 a chance to look at it yet.
=20
  > any idea of when full support will be available?
=20
 I expect that within the next couple of weeks, all of the most commonly =

 used bits (excepting document.write() - see below) will be supported.=20
  If there are specific methods/properties that you need that haven't=20
 been implemented then please open a feature request on sourceforge.  =20
 The goal of 1.1 is to support the subset of host objects that are used=20
 by the majority of websites. =20
=20
 It will likely be quite some time before EVERY javascript host object =
is=20
 fully supported but since most sites use a relatively small subset, =
this=20
 shouldn't be a problem.
=20
 Document.write() will likely not appear until 1.2 as I'm thinking it=20
 will require some significant changes to the way I load the documents.=20
  Of course if enough people tell me that they can't live without this=20
 function then priorities will change ;-)
