Marc, OK .. we've come up with a workaround for this problem. What we did was just put a null function called CollectGarbage() at the top of every page. So now it's no longer undefined. One the engineers here told me it was a little trick MSFT pulled for some ActiveX Excel stuff. It's useless, and now merely serves to break things. Still this should not trip up WebTest the way it did. We should be able to say something like "OK, undefined. Ignore it and move on."
Unfortunately, I now have another problem that is, probably, a symptom of my naivete. I'm running invoke on an url like this: http://www.bebo.com/InviteJoin.jsp?Member=N&ABC=Y This causes the test to die immediately, with a message to the effect that 'ABC' must be followed by a ';' delimiter. So, I put the semi-colon delimiter at the end, and it makes no difference. I get the same error. The I remove the '=' and just put ABC;. Now the error goes away but of course I don't get the parameter that I want set. Should I be using a POST method here with a content string? This is not at all clear to me from the documentation. Sorry for the elementary nature of this question. Maybe I'm just getting tired or something. Probably, someone else on this list will know the answer immediately??
