If you will view the demonstration URL, you'll see that I'm trying to use CSS to
generate labels that are NOT to be part of the semantic markup (hence the reason
I'm not using <label>). When I use the CSS "content:" property on an input,
Mozilla/Firebird will not pass the data I entered into the input.

I thought this might be somewhat related to 155957, but the breakage seems much
more fundamental.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Visit demo URL
2. Enter some data
3. Press submit
4. Look at your URL

Actual Results:  
The data values didn't get passed to the form action
Got submit happy, I guess.
