com.meterware.httpunit.ScriptException: Script 'appInfoUserSelections()'
failed: org.mozilla.javascript.EcmaError: TypeError: Cannot find function
createElement. (httpunit#418)

Our JSPs have pretty good bunch of java scripts. In this particular case, I
have a JSP including another jsp. This included JSP has few scripts, some of
them are triggered on body onload event.
Now, when I get to this page response through HttpUnit, I am getting this
exception.

The script extract:
function appInfoUserSelections()
{
------
var element = document.createElement("option");
-----
}

This line is throwing this exception. Now initially I thought, may be the
javascript *document* does not exist or it refers to something else, since
it is an included page.* *However, even after, I included this second JSP
directly into the main JSP, same Exception is thrown.
*document*createElement method has been introduced in DOM level 1, IE
and Mozilla
supports it. I am kind of confused. Ours was a completely developed
application with lots of version went onto production. I am just trying to
start this testing thing on top of it. I could succesfully make user login
test. This is my first functional use case.

Downloaded HttpUnit a month ago, using Eclipse 3.2 IDE, created TestCases
through this; I have the following jars in the testing project library:
junit3.8.1.jar, httpunit.jar, js-1.6R5.jar, nekhohtml-0.9.5.jar,
xercesImpl-2.6.1.jar, xmlParserAPIs-2.6.1.jar. Out of which junit3.8.1.jar
comes with Eclipse testing plugins itself I believe.

Someone please help me.

Good day
