User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030529 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030529 I have an HTML form with a hidden field; the value of the field is, say, "test test " When this form is submitted to the CGI the field is POSTed to the CGI without the trailing line feed. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Here's the example CGI script I used to diagnose the issue. #!/devl/perl/5.6.1/bin/perl -w $request_method = $ENV{'REQUEST_METHOD'}; if ($request_method eq "POST") { read (STDIN, $query_string, $ENV{'CONTENT_LENGTH'}); print "Content-type: text/plain", "\n\n"; @chars = unpack('C*', $query_string); foreach $c (@chars) { print "$c " . chr($c) . "\n"; } } else { print "Content-type: text/html", "\n\n"; print <<EOF <HTML> <HEAD><TITLE>Title</TITLE></HEAD> <BODY> <FORM ACTION="/twiki/bin/testcgi" METHOD="POST"> <INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="hidden0" VALUE="test test value "> <INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Submit"> </FORM> </BODY></HTML> EOF } Actual Results: When I press the submit button I get 104 h 105 i 100 d 100 d 101 e 110 n 48 0 61 = 116 t 101 e 115 s 116 t 37 % 48 0 68 D 37 % 48 0 65 A 116 t 101 e 115 s 116 t 43 + 118 v 97 a 108 l 117 u 101 e Expected Results: I expected to get back (and, dare I say it, IE5 returns) 104 h 105 i 100 d 100 d 101 e 110 n 48 0 61 = 116 t 101 e 115 s 116 t 37 % 48 0 68 D 37 % 48 0 65 A 116 t 101 e 115 s 116 t 43 + 118 v 97 a 108 l 117 u 101 e 37 % 48 0 68 D 37 % 48 0 65 A In other words, I expected Mozilla to preserve the value of the text field.
