Good day.

Hello sebb, I will now answer your inquiries.

1. I expect to see a very long string of random numbers and letters. As I said, 
I put a debug sampler on top of the sampler where the viewState variable is 
used. I inspected it and it was stored as a parameter I will be using. However 
when I looked at what the sampler passed as a parameter for its POST, the 
viewstate variable became "%24%7BjsfViewState%7D+". 

I have not tried to uncheck encode and will do it now. Will keep you posted for 
the results.

2. As for the reqex it is this

<input type="hidden" name="javax\.faces\.ViewState" 
id="javax\.faces\.ViewState" value="(.+?)" />

Thank you and best regards,

Stephen Florencio

What do you expect to see?

How are you adding the variable to the sampler?
If it is a parameter, have you selected "Encode?" - if so, try deselecting it.

Which regex?
