Hello Andy, not exactly a bug, but a combination of lacking documentation and inconsistency: it is not specified, whether follow uses 0 or 1 as a base for "nth links". It is 0, but the form and form_number use 1 as index base. I think this should be normalized to either 0 or 1. Another documentation issue: the parameter behind follow() should have its entities expanded. That is, if I have a link <a href="...">L&ouml;schen</a> on a html page, then the corresponding call should be follow("Löschen") (hopefully you're able to see the o-umlaut). Regards, Slaven Show quoted text

The ability to specify the links has been expanded in 0.40 with the find_link() and follow_link() methods. Your other suggestion has been split off into ticket #2416.
