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. -- Blog: http://mguillem.wordpress.com
