Hi Marc,
The new version didn't fix it (although it is good to have the new version),
but one of the programmers here figured out what tripped up WebTest (or
HtmlUnit, more likely) and fixed it.  It's something they had done to make
the HTML valid.  I asked him to write it up so I can post it, in case
someone else does the same thing.
Thanks!

Hi Lisa,

I understand a bit better... but still need some explainations.

How is the step=2 parameter set? Is it done on the server side or with
some
script on the client side?

In fact I'm quite surprised because if submitted parameters are not
computed
correctly, then you would surely not be the first to complain.

Last question: which WebTest build (with which htmlunit version) do you
use?

Marc.
