Details

In the following html, clicking on the first button does not submit the form while the second button will. However, the html code for both buttons is identical. <html> <head> </head> <body> <table> <form ACTION="http://miner.newcastle.edu.au/callaghan/ovidweb/ovidweb.cgi"> <INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="T" VALUE="auth"> <INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="ID" VALUE="callaghan" SIZE=10> <INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="password" VALUE="callaghan" SIZE=10> <TR><TD> <INPUT TYPE="image" border=0 NAME="start" SRC="http://miner.newcastle.edu.au/ovidweb/gifs/astart.gif"> <INPUT TYPE="hidden" VALUE="ovid" NAME="mode"></TD> </TR> </form> <form ACTION="http://miner.newcastle.edu.au/callaghan/ovidweb/ovidweb.cgi"> <INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="T" VALUE="auth"> <INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="ID" VALUE="callaghan" SIZE=10> <INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="password" VALUE="callaghan" SIZE=10> <TR><TD> <INPUT TYPE="image" border=0 NAME="start" SRC="http://miner.newcastle.edu.au/ovidweb/gifs/astart.gif"> <INPUT TYPE="hidden" VALUE="ovid" NAME="mode"></TD> </TR> </form> </table> </body> </html>
<Haven't checked source to see if it's related, but the 11.30.98 build won't allow searches on Altavista; specfically, pressing the Search button yields no activity, and doesn't result in form submission.>

Seems like a parser bug?

Eli was correct above, the altavista case is identical. I've marked it, and another duplicate, as such. BTW, the above page can be reduced to: http://blueviper/forms/formintable1.html or at it's simplest: http://blueviper/forms/formintable.html
BTW, this bug was changed by Rick's parser updates. Now neither of the buttons on the test page works. This points more fingers at it being a parser bug.

It's baaaaaack! Test pages: http://altavista.com http://netaddress.com The submit button must now be pressed twice to submit the form (on linux). The browser crashes sometimes on the second click (on linux).

Here are some test cases: http://blueviper/forms/formintable.html -- Form frame is created From original test case: http://blueviper/forms/formintable1.html -- Form frame NOT created From www.netaddress.com main page login form: http://blueviper/forms/formintable2.html -- Form frame NOT created From www.altavista.com main page search form: http://blueviper/forms/formintable3.html -- Form frame NOT created
Putting myself on the CC list. Let me know if I can help.

The forms in the examples and URLs are now submitting. However, http://www.netaddress.com is having a problem in the single signon code and I will file a new bug and assign it to Morse.

Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
All examples OK on Linux. Still need to click twice to submit some forms - there is a separate bug on this. Marking this one verified.
