On the page https://groupwise.wlu.ca:51443/servlet/webacc (which is a Novell
Groupwise login page), the Submit button does not work - clicking Submit does
nothing. This is a regression - the 20040430 trunk worked fine, stopped working
with 20040502 (not sure if 20040501 worked).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enter any login and password information
2. Click on Login

Actual Results:  
Nothing

Expected Results:  
Proceeded with logging in to Groupwise
> the 20040430 trunk worked fine

2004-04-30 when?  morning?  Evening?   2004-05-01-08 does not work.
Actually, this looks like likely fallout from bug 60212.. I'm not seeing this in
my build (which has all the changes I landed on the 30th, but not the event change).

It was a custom build of FireFox, built in the morning.
Flags: blocking1.8a?
Also seeing this at: http://mail.atl.devry.edu/servlet/webacc

Pressing the Login button does nothing.  I've tested using the Official Win32
nightly build from 20040430 - works fine with this build but not with any
official Win32 builds from 20040501 to present.  Apparently the bug is also
showing in Mac builds, as evidenced by this thread:

Sean, I doubt that you're seeing this bug, since my build with the fix for bug
242503 worksforme on that site (so you're probably seeing a variant of that
problem).  If you could retest once that patch is checked in, that would be much
appreciated.
Depends on: 60212
Same as bug 242709. Closing as a duplicate of that one because it has a simple
test case some analysis.

My mistake. The same checkin created this bug and bug 242709, but the testcases
are slightly different and the mechanism of breakage is slightly different as
well. Reopening. Note this is almost certainly the same as bug 242439.

This bug also stops paypal transactions, so most ebay users won't be able to pay
for their auctions in an efficient manner.

Attached patch patchSplinter Review
I think this is the patch we want for this and bug 242709.  It passes all of
the testcases here and does not regress any of the DOMActivate tests.

I tried the last build of firefox:
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040519
Firefox/0.8.0+

and it is still there
I can't send any form with MacFirefox build since 1may 
Asaf: most likely you're seeing bug 244698. This too is fixed in (very) recent
builds.
