131406 - forms do not submit

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect)

Description

[Juerd]

Since I started using Mozilla 0.9.9 (upgraded from 0.9.8), no forms do submit. This is regardless of form manager settings, and no javascript is 
involved.
Restarting mozilla did not help, deleting ~/.mozilla did not help.

Reporter:
Can you try it with a new profile ? run "mozilla -profilemanager" and create an
additional test profile..

Comment 2

[Juerd]

I tried creating a new profile (did that before: removing ~/.mozilla forced me to create one), but that didn't help. I could open up a shell account 
(accessable via ssh2) if that would help. If you want me to, please let me know.

Is this all forms?  POST and GET?  Any particular page?  For example, can you
search on http://www.google.com ?

It was on all forms I encountered, local and http, get and post.

"was", because it seems to work now. The things that I have done in the meantime:
* remove 0.9.9
* install 0.9.8
* remove 0.9.8 again
* install 0.9.9 to test if test profile would work
* remove 0.9.9 because it didn't
* install 0.9.8 again
* surf a lot
* installed 0.9.9 again (removed the old one again)
* and now, it seems to work

Examples of forms that didn't work:
* login at perlmonks.org
* google
* local debian start page that has some search forms

A form that did work:
* i forgot the site, but it was a javascript form.submit()

I'm sorry I don't have any more information, because it seems to work perfectly
now. Thanks for your time, I will contact you later when I encounter this bug again.

marking worksforme because we can't reproduce it and it works now for the reporter.
