Sorry, I was wrong about not "triggering the default action". I forgot that
I use hidden iframes to direct the content of the default action, i.e.,
<iframe name="iframeA"></iframe>
...
<iframe name="iframeZ"></iframe>
<a id="clickA" href="http://example.org/A"; target="iframeA">A</a>
...
<a id="clickZ" href="http://example.org/Z"; target="iframeZ">Z</a>
With real browsers, the content loads into the iframe.
With WebTest, the simulated click changes the current response. Is there a
setting to disable following frames?
