Hi,

it took me far longer than I originally expected to incorporate
HtmlUnit-2.1 and to ensure that everything works almost as previously,
but now this is done: build 1700 is based on HtmlUnit-2.1

*Warning: possible fixes needed in XPath usage*

HtmlUnit doesn't use Jaxen with a custom document navigator anymore for
XPath processing but Xalan with standard DOM node navigation. This has
different consequences:

- shortcuts to verify text content of a node don't work anymore
ex: //tr[td = '2.1'] should be replaced for instance with //tr[td/text()
= '2.1']

- spaces are not trimmed in text
ex: if the text of the above td is "  2.1", the XPath expression should
be changed to //tr[td/text() = '  2.1']. Alternatively you can use the
wt:cleanText function //tr[wt:cleanText(td) = '2.1']

- syntax check is less forgiving: I've seen some cases of invalid xpath
expressions (for instance with a ")" instead of a "]") that were
accepted previously but that are not accepted anymore.

Your feedback is welcome.

Happy testing,
Marc.
