The submit method should be recognized. I'm navigating through the DOM to the form which does support submit. Thanks for pointing me at the httpunit page. I was aware of it, but I had forgotten about it. I really don't think that's the problem. I was testing some pages with bogus code in a form's onsubmit (which webtest handles fine), and that was reported as a script error. What I'm seeing is a reflection exception inside of Rhino. In the "Design" thread you said you were testing pages with javascript on the links, so this is working for you? What version of webtest are you using? I'm using build 280, under ant-1.5.3.
The odd thing about this javascript mess is that that test works fine when I write it in straight HttpUnit, and run it against the jar files in the webtest lib directory, but when webtest tries an equivalent test I get this odd exception. I have no idea why this would be happening. I'm trying to get everything from ant on up rebuilt with debugging info, which is giving me some trouble (I had upgraded to JDK1.4.2, which only ant from CVS builds under, and that ant doesn't seem to like webtest.)
You have never seen a NoClassDefFound exception while trying to test pages that use javascript?
Thanks Brandon

I can only assume its cause the link isnt part of the html form and so the submit method isnt recognized. As I am sure you are aware http://httpunit.sourceforge.net/doc/javascript-support.html gives you all the methods that are supported for each html element.
In a similar situation I set my href to call a page global javascript method and this method then did the document.form[0].submit(); Ie
<html> <head> <title>Javascript Test</title> </head> <script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript"> function mySubmit() { document.forms[0].submit(); } </script> <body> <form id="testForm" action="http://www.google.com"> <input name="button" type="SUBMIT"> </form> <a href="javascript:mySubmit();">click</a>
</body> </html>
This worked for me but then I had to mess around a little bit as WebTest hadnt recognized that a submit had occurred. Cheers Graham

I do have js.jar in my classpath. Javascript attached to forms works fine. onsubmit actions exectute and possibly prevent a clickbutton from taking you anywhere, etc. The exception is thrown inside rhino code (In an object built to be a function objects invoker), so I'm pretty webtest sees rhino on the classpath. No one else has trouble with javascript on links?
I can't figure out what is happening here. Does anyone else see symptoms like this:
I put up a test webpage that looks like this:
<html> <head> <title>Javascript Test</title> </head> <body> <form id="testForm" action="http://www.google.com"> <input name="button" type="SUBMIT"> </form> <a href="javascript:document.forms[0].submit()">click</a>
</body> </html>
My test script invokes the page, uses clicklink with label "click", and crashed:

This might happen because you don't have js.jar in your classpath. Most probably the problem is occurring because one of the jar files is not in your classpath.
As for my case, yes javascript is submitting a form that should make the server change the database.

You could try using the verifyxpath task to compare the contents of the <a> tag with a string, so you can see what the xpath engine canoo uses comes up with. You don't have any trouble following the link if you use an empty label? Any time I try to write a test that follows a link canoo dies with a NoClassDefFound exception inside rhino, missing Javascript$Form from HttpUnit. Any idea why that would be happening? I'm using the latest version.
I would try coding the test in HttpUnit and see if that hits the database. What do you mean the javascript should change the database? Do you mean the javascript should submit a form that should make the server change the database?

Hi Brandon,
When I use "" as label of link then the test runs without any error, but this function "SubmitWithDisclosure" is supposed to update a database, which is not being done, so I don't think it is invoked. When I use "Submit" or " Submit " as label of the link then I get link not found error. The xpath returns "\u00A0Submit\u00A0", which is unicode for "áSubmitá", I tried using that and I get the same link not found error with text "ßSubmitß". I think the problem here is that for some reason when I put "á" in my tests it is changed to "ß" when comparing, so it does not work.
Thanks for your reply, Hetal Y zfj)b? b?m7
