I once had the same problem. I remember updating a lot of jmeter files an
finally i got it working.  (hidden fields are passed on from response to
request)

I remember having some trouble using a 'normal' modification manager, and i
created my own config element instead.
That' why i also had to update the HTTPSampler.

Anyway, i attached some files i updated in order to get it working.
