If you add a sleep statement before the second selectField then the test can 
pass.  Or you can use the config option of easyajax which "makes each step take 
2 seconds when the app uses continuously setInterval" (Marc from the mailing 
list).  I used both methods and was able to select from your second selectfield 
(I didn't want to click the GO button in case it messed up your app somehow).  
I have included examples of each below:

Easyajax:
<config host="www.biohealthbase.org" protocol="http" easyajax="true"/>
                        <invoke 
url="/GSearch/influenza_surveillanceRecord_search.do?method=ShowCleanSearch&amp;decorator=influenza"
 />
                        <setSelectField name="order" text="Anseriformes"/>
                        <setSelectField name="family" text="Anatidae 
(Waterfowl)"/>

Sleep:
<config host="www.biohealthbase.org" protocol="http" easyajax="true"/>
                        <invoke 
url="/GSearch/influenza_surveillanceRecord_search.do?method=ShowCleanSearch&amp;decorator=influenza"
 />
                        <setSelectField name="order" text="Anseriformes"/>
                        <sleep seconds="2"/>
                        <setSelectField name="family" text="Anatidae 
(Waterfowl)"/>

I guess an easier way to say what I said previously is the following.

I am not sure that Webtest will track dynamic changes (AJAX or the like) in the 
content of a page. That is, the <OPTION> tags are added programmatically after 
the first selection is made;
   <setSelectField name="order" text="Anseriformes"/>.

My guess is there is some way to track dynamic changes but I do not know it.

For exampel, in this url:
http://www.biohealthbase.org/GSearch/influenza_surveillanceRecord_search
.do?method=ShowCleanSearch&decorator=influenza
I try to select Host order = Anseriformes; family = Anatidae (Waterfowl) and 
run the search.  The test script is like this:

<setSelectField name="order" text="Anseriformes"/> <setSelectField 
name="family" text="Anatidae (Waterfowl)"/> <clickButton label="Go"/>

but got error no option element found with text "Anatidae (Waterfowl)".

thanks,
Xiaomei
