Sorry for the late reply, but just found this:

http://www.httpunit.org/doc/javascript-support.html

Bascially it says support is limited at present but looking through the 
supported methods there is certainly a workable subset there. I 
certainly have had no problems staying within that subset for a 
reasonably complex site - but I am sure you could :-). They also mention 
that they don't support any browser specific features, e.g. IE specials.

Cheers, Paul.
