I haven't used LoadRunner in years, but I did some fairly extensive testing
with it when I did. What I would suggest, however, is getting a copy of
WinRunner instead, which I believe in it's newest incarnation is built for
web testing. Mercury (I think it's Mercury that makes WinRunner and
LoadRunner...or they did back then) may have some other product right now
specifically for webtesting. I'd check their site out.
