[Webtest] clicklink and clickbutton-no new response ...

[Marc Guillemot]

May you have some javascript in the page? Calling link.click() "simulates" a click on the link and triggers for instance 
the onclick javascript code which can cancel the navigation to the url specified in the href. Else I know that httpunit 
handles targets quite bad. In all cases, if you can build a very small sample script+html page illustrating the problem, 
I'm interested in (the smallest possible is the best, really with minimal html code).

Marc.
