what's the error that you're getting ? Is the asserted value and test 
value not matching or is something else going no behind the scenes? I 
tried running some webtests on your site but was unable to connect - I 
thought I had the proxy set correctly but I receive a connection refused. 
If I remember, I'll run the test from home tonight. I have noticed some 
strange behaviors when running tests against HTML that really up to a good 
standard. Would it be possible to isolate the HTML in a new page with 
proper code? Just a snippet should help you out.

Re: [Webtest] invoke/verifyxpath no elements issue






Well, as a more targeted example, I can use the xpath 
"//div[1]/li//li[1]/a[1]" to target the element I want.  This evaluates 
exactly how I'd expect when using webtest recorder, so I assume that my 
xpath is proper (syntactically at least).  But this very same xpath 
results in a failure in webtest.  I can go to the saved page linked in the 
webtest report and the xpath works in both xpather and the xpath tool in 
webtest recorder.  Even the simplest of xpaths, such as "//a" or //div" 
fail in webtest but not in xpather or the xpath tool in webtest recorder. 
After putting the page through htmltidy, it was a little closer to valid, 
though I still got the same behavior with valid xpaths failing in webtest. 
 Could valid xpaths failing in webtest be the result of non-compliant 
html?
