Details

(Tested on Linux using build ID 2001112012) If the onChange script for a radio button submits the button's form and one of the buttons has a "checked" designation, Mozilla submits the form with no interaction from the user. This can cause an infinite loop, with the browser constantly re-submitting the form. The following html will reproduce this if placed on the server as "test_js.html" : <html> <head> <title>A test case for JavaScript bug</title> </head> <body> <form action="/test_js.html" method="GET"> <input type=RADIO name="f1" value="No" onChange="this.form.submit(); return true;" checked>No <input type=RADIO name="f1" value="Yes" onChange="this.form.submit(); return true;">Yes </form> </body> </html>
still happening on current trunk.
