Django client: Fields in buttons are missing from POST data

[oTree-org]

I have this form:

<form method="POST">
<button name="foo" value="1">Submit</button>
(some other fields etc...)
</form>

When I do this:

browser.find_by_name('foo').first.click()

On the server I can see that the submitted POST data is missing the field "foo".

I'm using splinter[django]==0.11.0 with Python 3.7 but I recall this happening about a year ago also.

Hey @andrewsmedina, could I help in this issue? Where would I start looking?

@sukhbeersingh your help are welcome. I believe that tho fix this issue we should improve the lxmldriver (the driver that django extends) serialize method to get data from the button elements: https://github.com/cobrateam/splinter/blob/master/splinter/driver/lxmldriver.py#L47
