I also tried to open it up with setting it to a .b64 file and WinZip didn't recognize it. I would also appreciate if someone could send the original zip file. I'm in the same situation as Lisa.
Thanks!

What am I missing?  I desperately need this patch.  My boss is starting to lose patience with WebTest, and if I can't get it working more smoothly soon, I won't be able to get a Java programmer to help do whatever additional tweaks we may need.  Worse still, he might make me use some awful commercial test tool!  I think with this patch for type=button I can cover a good part of our site with WebTest tests.  Then I can recruit one of our programmers to help with the rest.
