multiple submits to/from same page only submit the first time about akephalos HOT 5 OPEN

I have now also verified that this works perfectly with the selenium web driver.

from akephalos.

I even tried to press the button with javascript, and it still fails.
page.driver.execute_script("document.getElementById('save_button').click();")

from akephalos.

Hi Patrick,

I think that instructions sent to the HTMLUnit driver are atomic. Meaning the second click on the save button is not sent until the first has finished. It makes sense on a headlesss driver.

What happen if you do this?:

page.driver.execute_script("
  document.getElementById('save_button').click();
  document.getElementById('save_button').click();")

Hi Nerian,

I am not actually trying to click a button twice. That is the result of narrowing the bug description down to a isolated case.
My need is to submit a form multiple times, like when you change search parameters and click ok.
It really bugs me that akephalos doesnt seem to support such behaviour.

I do not even receive a POST to apache on the second click with akephalos, no matter if its javascript, direct API calls or whatever.

I have full blown tests now that works perfectly with other drivers, but not at all with akephalos, as it refuses to POST to or from pages it has posted to/from before, or something like that.

I have not figured out exactly what in the code that does this. It seems to be deeper down into the htmlunit interface or something.

Hi Patrick,

Do you still have this problem in https://github.com/Nerian/akephalos2 ?

I tried to reproduce this bug, but it works fine for me.

it "Should be able to make four requests to the same page" do
session.visit '/form'
session.click_button 'Submit'
session.click_button 'Submit'
session.click_button 'Submit'
session.body.should include('visit_number:4')
end

Is this what you were trying to do? Can you provide a failing example?

Issue a bug report at https://github.com/Nerian/akephalos2

Thanks
