121086 - multipart/form-data forms behaving strangely

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 116210

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect)

Description

[seb bacon]

Forms containing a file upload input field are behaving incorrectly: when the
submit button has a 'name' attribute, and no file is specified, the connection
hangs.  When there *is* a 'name' attribute, and no file is specified, no
connection is made at all.

Test cases can be found at specified url
(http://www.jamkit.com/moz_broken_forms.html)

This behaviour was not present in 0.9.6.

Reporting this from galeon, but also fails in Moz 0.9.7 and a nightly build from
last week, Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.7+) Gecko/20020114

Reporter are you SURE that this doesn't work on a build from last week?  This
was a known problem in 0.9.7 -- it was in the release notes.  But it has been
fixed already.  See bug 116210.

You're right, it's now fixed; I didn't find bug 116210 earlier.
