135478 - <input> checkboxes in invisible <DIV>s not set

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

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

Description

[Mike Krus]

Hi,

<input type="checkbox"> when set by the user in a <DIV> which is set to style
"display:none" when the form is submitted are to sent in the POST query (haven't
checked GET method).

I have a complex form which is displayed in multiple "tabs" (sample tabs, with
no cross-tab form here http://www.newsisfree.com/sources/info/1912/ ). The
<form> tags encompasses all the <div>s which are displayed/hidden for the tabs.

If the user checks a box in one tabs and than flips to another to submit the
form, the POST query does not contain the variable for the checked box.

I use build 2002040103...

That was bug 34297, and for checkboxes specifically, bug 108307 or bug 108308. 
Bug 108309 related too.

I can't find any checkboxes in those tabs.  Could you post a testcase por favor?

A test page is available here: http://www.newsisfree.com/divtest.php

several divs, each with an input check box (checked by default). On submit, it
shows the content of the POST variables...

They all submit for me, Linux 2002040706.  What I see when I submit is:

HTTP_POST_VARS:
Array
(
    [PAGE2] => on
    [PAGE4] => on
    [PAGE5] => on
    [PAGE3] => on
    [PAGE6] => on
    [PAGE1] => on
    [DEBUGDIV] =>  Update 
)

Can you please post what you see?

Steps: I just clicked the Update button.  I just tried moving around tabs and
clicking Update too.  When I uncheck one, move to a tab and click Update, it
submits everything but the unchecked checkbox, which is right too.

So what steps are you using to reproduce and what is the expected output and the
actual output you get?

I follow exactly those steps, but on a recent windows build (I'm on the road 
now, can't check the exact build date) (it's on Win2K, a french version)

I always see only one variable, the one for the active tab (if it's checked of 
course).

OK, with a recent (April 3rd), the bug is gone.
Turns out I had an older build (02/02) on another machine.

Sorry for the trouble, good luck on 1.0
