Subject: typeKeys obsolete and new sendkeys command not immplemted

Hello WWW::Selenium Maintainer, First thanks for the great work. WWW:Selenium helps me much. Unfortunately, I would use type_keys to enter text in a text box on a web side with a lot of JavaScript and Ajax. The Textbox triggers some js events and if entered some text it is evaluated and a button becomes active. The typeKeys or type_keys respectively command is accepted by the Selenium Server (2.35.0) and reports OK but the button does not become active. I checked the typeKeys command in the Selenium IDE and the docu there says it is obsolete. The user should use sendKeys instead. With sendkeys it works, but sendKeys is not supported by WWW::Selenium :( I hope it could be possible to implement this command as well, Wolfgang

I think this ticket can be closed. Selenium WebDriver does not support "sendKeys" per this ticket: https://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=4349 So typeKeys() should remain. For proof, attached is a patched Selenium.pm with send_keys() implemented. Running it against selenium-server-standalone-2.42.2.jar, results in the error: "Unknown command".
