[Webtest] clickbutton with button tag

[Dierk Koenig]

Hi Erik,

it is weird, but <clickbutton> does not find the <button> tag, although this
is
proper html 4.0.

Reason is, that we relay the call to httpunit's WebForm.getSubmitButtons()
method
that in turn only looks for the input type submit and not for button tags.

Fixing this requires looking for the latest httpunit changes and eventually
updating or otherwise submitting some changes to httpunit itself.

I will follow up, but I cannot promise a date.

Meanwhile you will not be able to use <clickbutton> in your example.
Changing the webapp to using the input type=submit style would do the
trick but is like a step backwards from the webapp perspective.

Maybe it is possible to <invoke> the form with predefined parameters(?).

cheers
Mittie
