This may be related to bug #97537.
I was using 0.9.0 (or 0.9.1 I cant remember - one before 0.9.4 anyway :), and
upgrated to 0.9.4.  Suddenly, my web app that used JS to populate form values
didnt work for SELECT elements.

Following is some code that reproduces my problem on 0.9.4:

<html>
<head>
<title>Javascript form population bug test</title>
</head>
<body>
<form name="testform">
<select name="testselect">
<option value="">Nothing</option>
<option value="1">One</option>
<option value="2">Two</option>
</select>
<br>
<input type="text" name="texttest" value="">
</form>
<script language="JavaScript">
document.forms["testform"].testselect.value="1";
document.forms["testform"].texttest.value="this works...";
</script>
</body>
</html>

I say that this may be related to bug #97537 in that they were both formally
working and both stopped working around the same verssion/time.
Hey, jkeiser, want to test this one with your changes too?  :)
I am unclear why this ever worked.  However, it's fixed in the upcoming patch
for bug 34297.  Adding dependency.

this one fails. i am attaching a testcase.
Attached file testcase
this is a dup of bug 96346
Can't be a dup of that one, because this one fails and that one succeeds for me
on Linux 2001103113.
Fixed with bug 34297 landing.
