It turns out that the fix that was put in for
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7083 causes this problem. If an
action is not specified nothing happens. Nav 4.x reloads the url with the get
data.
A proposed solution is to suppress submission of only if the action is undefined
and there isn't any data. Note: this solution is not compatible with Nav 4.x or
IE since they will cause a page reload, resetting all of the form fields if
there isn't an action or data.
The actual solution will be to supress submission only if the form is NOT inside
an HTML document. XML, XUL, and other document will not submit unless an action
is specified.
Target Milestone: M10
I have implemented the solution noted in the last message, just waiting for tree
to open. I tested against the URL above for the HTML case. I tested it against
dexparamdialog.xul for the xul case. Note: I had to modify my local copy of the
dexparamdialog.xul to have a submit button.

Updating QA contact.  cpratt please verify with latest build.
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
Seems OK in the 1999091508 build. However, the results page has a bit in it that
says "Content-type: text/html" that I don't remember seeing in Nav 4.x.

Marking this as verified fixed.
