Hi Marc. Thanks for your answer and sorry for answering so late.

Now we did a workaround: You could use a GET-Parameter with a date representation (e.g. http://url.de/calendar/show?month=01/2008). This parameter is looped through the Grails controller into the gsp and there we set a javascript variable like <g:if test="${month}"> <g:javascript>var month = "${month}"</g:javascript> </g:if> If this javascript variable is defined we decide which YUI calendar constructor we use (with or without config map). This works - but is ugly! It's ugly, because we have to fumble the new date through the whole webapp. And this seems to be no smell in the testdriven way, where this would mean that we _should_ open our webapp to deal with this kind of interaction like setting the date. Testdrivenly spoken I would like to change my environment (the browser or the OS; here: Webtest) to see how my code behave. Therfore I would recommend a feature request for changing browser's time and date through Webtest/Htmlunit. What do you think about this?

See our "solution" above for further info.
