Hi Marc,
It works in a normal browser (IE6).  What I am told by the developer is that
Spring saves the parameter from the get, for example, 'step=1'.  Then when
you click the submit button, it remembers the parameter, adds 1 to it, and
appends 'step=2' to the URL that results when you submit.  That takes you to
the next page.  When the WebTest script clicks the button, the step number
isn't changed, so you stay on the same page.  As far as I understand, they
did this in order to use one Spring controller for several different pages
that make up a UI wizard.

The developer added hidden fields that allow WebTest to work, but since a
lot of people do use Spring, I was hoping someone else was doing something
similar and maybe there is a way for WebTest to handle this without having
to use the hidden fields.
thanks
Lisa

Hi Lisa,

I'm not sure to understand. You want to use WebTest here to do something
that wouldn't be possible with a "normal" browser. Is this correct?

Marc.
