I don't understand the steps. There's no cancel button. Are you talking about
the form submission button? Does this still happen?

Feel free to re-open if this is still an issue.

Updating URL to one which still shows the bug.

I think what Neil is talking about is pressing "Cancel" when the browser warns
you about submitting a form. I haven't tried to reproduce because I don't know
how to switch the warning on...

Would it be a browser bug then?

bugzilla.mozilla.org is on https which makes testing tricky, but to enable the
warning on an http bugzilla go to Preferences -> Privacy and Security -> SSL

With my browser, it turns out it's security.warn_submit_insecure at about:config :)

I can reproduce on landfill. The reason is the onclick-JavaScript in the Or, And
and Add buttons (document.forms[0].action='query.cgi#chart';
document.forms[0].method='POST') -- that modifies the Search button behaviour.

This is about

• the old Boolean Chart UI, which was gone
• Netscape Communicator, which was gone
• insecure form submission, which was gone
