Submitting a form using the POST method, that only contains a submit button, fails with the following error message: request#no_content_length As far as I know such a form is allowed; the form works fine in Internet Explorer.

WFM on linux too, if this is indeed a bug, it seems to be a windows-specific one. I do suspect that this might be an issue with the server side of things. Reporter: can you supply a testcase? I created a php script which submitted to itself, and that worked regardless of name/value on the submit or lack thereof.

Sorry to have been so long in repsonding; my Hotmail account was having problems. To respond to the questions: I thought Bugzilla included details of the build I was using automatically, sorry: 0.9.9 anyway. The URL given above is the test case, and the response that is received upon pressing the submit button is "Invalid Request". Here it is again: <http://lundbooks.co.uk/test.php> However I am beginning to think this may be a problem with our web server rather than Mozilla. Of course I would be grateful if anyone could let me know if that is the case - and what to do about it! Thing is - it does work fine in IE. Thanks

George, you're going to have to provide more information on steps to reproduce and especially on how to tell a successful submission from a failed one. When I submit with a current Linux trunk build I get no error message but just the test.php page again.

Well if this can't be pinned down then so be it. It could be something peculiar to our connection (tho' I did try with two different ISPs and via a proxy server). The full message I get is: request#no_content_length ------- Description: Unable to process request for URL"http://lundbooks.co.uk/test.php". ------- If I use a proxy server I get that proxy server's custom error response, indicating that Mozilla sent an "invalid request". As I say, in IE there's no error message, the page is just reloaded as you would expect (and as you seem to get in Mozilla). We run Windows 2000. Sorry I can't think of anything else that might explain it!

the form wfm with a cvs build from today on win2k. I get the same results in mozilla as I do in IE6.

Ah. Of course. "request#no_content_length" means the request has no content-length header.... Duplicate of "Submitting form creates bad request according to squid" (we were not putting content-length on some requests, fixed March 12). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 129333 ***
