78225 - Forms zeroed out

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: Layout: Form Controls, defect)

Description

[Greg Lindahl]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16-22 i686; en-US; 0.8) Gecko/20010217
BuildID:    2001021712

TWiki is a web collaboration tool. All versions of mozilla are
flakey in dealing with its forms. In order to reproduce:

1) Go to http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Test/TestTopic34
2) Hit the "Edit" button
3) Use TWikiGuest and guest and your username and password
4) You should see a form with the page contents.
5) Hit the "Preview Changes" button.
6) If the bug manifests itself, you will see a page with a
header and footer but you won't see the preview itself.
7) Hit the "Back" button.
8) Hit "Preview Changes" again.
9) You should now see the correct output.

Sorry I don't have it more detailed than that. It works OK on
other browsers, including Netscape 4.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
See description.

I verified that the "text" field in the form is indeed arriving empty at
the cgi script.

Reporter:
Can you try it again with mozilla 0.9 ?

Comment 3

[kristopher_d_johnson]

Problem still exists with Mozilla 0.9.

This appears to have been fixed in 0.9.1 (Talkback build under Windows 2000) -
tried this on several TWiki sites including internal ones and TWiki.org (see URL
above), as well as
http://sleepless-night.com/cgi-bin/twiki/view/Test/TestTopic1, and it works in
all cases.

I'm not really a bugzilla person so have not marked Fixed yet.
