We've been using WebTest for more than 6 years and our scripts run multiple
times per day via hudson.

We have some extra time so I wanted to upgrade to the latest version.
Currently we have version R_1762. When I installed R_1809, the scripts that
click this button started failing. There's no error message, it just doesn't
do anything, so the next step fails because it didn't submit the page and
get to the next page in the UI.

The html is:
<input name="submitButton" id="submitButton" type="submit" value="Accept
Plan Documents" onclick="javascript: submitButtonSingleClick();"/>

The script has:
                <clickButton description="click accept plan documents
button"
                  name="submitButton" />

I searched around in the archives, found a mention of enableJavaScript.
We've never used that, but I tried putting it in, it didn't help. There's
obviously javascript on the button, but since it hasn't caused problems in
the past 6 years, I'm surprised that it suddenly would.

We'd like to stay current with our WebTest version. This is the only issue
I've found with the new version (though I still have more tests to run and
make sure). Please advise. It's only the one button, so if we need to change
the html, that wouldn't be too bad, we just need to know how to change it.
Thanks,
Lisa
