fun. I'll take it, look at it in detail in a few hours

Comment 2

This is an odd problem. Adam, does the form actually work correctly in mozilla?
I'm assigning this bug to the parser component to see if they can shed more
light on the issue.

The page info code uses the dom to look up the action of the form, so there
shouldn't be any way for it to get mixed up. The page validates perfectly.

 <FORM ACTION="/index.php?none=1" METHOD="GET">
 <INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="action" VALUE="plnytext">

So form.action is the DOM0 way to access the input element...  and you get what
you get.  Life sucks.  Maybe if form.action is an Object we can fall back to
form.getAttribute("action") ?  Or just start off with form.getAttribute (and add
a comment saying why)?

Daniel: Form works fine, page is validated by W3C without error.

Comment 5

[Fabian Guisset]

Cc'ing jst, but I doubt this will be fixed on the DOM side.

Comment 6

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

The DOM behavior here is absolutely correct.  We should just be doing what I say
in comment 3 -- if form.action is an Object, then fall back to getAttribute().
