Hi,
I can't look at the JWebUnit source right now, but it sounds like
getPageSource() just dumps out the original source of the page, i.e.
without Javascript DOM modifications, whereas page.asXml() dumps the
runtime content of the page itself, i.e. after Javascript/AJAX has
modified the page. Or perhaps the source page does not validate, thus
some of the elements are lost.
What happens if you execute getElementsByXPath("//tr")?
Cheers
Jevon
