Details

When submitting a form using post, a view source shows previous source of the
form, that is stored in cache.

Reproduce it by going to http://www.ncst.ernet.in/~philip/test/test-form.cgi and
http://www.ncst.ernet.in/~philip/test/test-form.html

Both files provide two html forms, one using get, one using post.  Both submit
to test-form.cgi

Submit either using get, and then do a view source.

Expected: source should match display
What happens: source matches display

Now submit using post, and then do a view source
Expected: source should match display, or message should state that content is
from a POST submission
What happens: source matches the source in the first case.

Using Mozilla 0.9.4 on RHL7.1.  Installed from RPM.
