Definitely an edge case, but if you disable Active Scripting in IE 8 and visit http://preview.addons.mozilla.org, the language/locale picker's "Go" button won't submit.

Thanks to Raymond for the find :-)

I can't reproduce this, and the language picker form looks good (just eyeballing it).

BTW, "active scripting" appears to be an alias for "javascript".  I'm able to toggle the "active scripting" selector by disabling script in the dev tools.
This is a trivial fix:

If you have time to do it, Jeff, go ahead, otherwise I can.

Ah, thanks Fred.  I'm pretty sure you guys are testing this in IE7, since msdn says "In IE8 mode, the default value is submit. In other compatibility modes and earlier versions of Internet Explorer, the default value is button.".

This was indeed broken only in IE 7 with JS disabled (I tested on prod); verified on staging using IE 7 (tested to ensure it works in Firefox/IE 8, too).
