Details 
Try the following code:

<A HREF='afadfasdfasdf' onClick='alert("yar");return false'>
<IMG SRC='' ISMAP>
</A>

(obviously, you'll have to insert some src for the image tag)

Clicking the image causes the alert to happen, but the "return false" is 
ignored and a mystery page is loaded (it has the contents "<HTML><
BODY></BODY></HTML>)".   

I would expect that this would behave like a normal link, wherein the 
default action of link-clicking (i.e. loading any page) is cancelled.

I tested with the latest mac build and still get the same behavior.  Please 
contact me with any questions.  Thanks.

This works correctly in IE 6.0

    
    

    
  
It is important to have this fixed for AJAX based code that also aims to work correctly with Javascript disabled browsers - you can spit out different HTML of course, but depending on when it is known that JavaScript is disabled, this maybe somewhat painful.
