Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

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

Description

[Björn Wiberg]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624

When using HTTPS, and submitting forms, one has to click three (3) times on the
submit button before the form is submitted. Until then, nothing happens (i.e.
the form does not get submitted).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load a page using HTTPS, e.g. an online banking service or secure login page.
2. Fill in the form, e.g. a user ID and password.
3. Click on the submit (e.g. login) button. Nothing happens.

Actual Results:  
Nothing happens. It takes two more clicks before the form gets submitted.


Expected Results:  
Submitted the form after clicking on the submit (e.g. login) button the first time.

Default theme. Form submission using conventional (non-secure) HTTP works fine.

On that test page, in Linux trunk build 2003-06-30-05, a single click on the
button submits...

Seems to work fine in Mozilla 1.5 Alpha (1.5a, Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows
