138872 - tiscali.fr - Mozilla case sensitive for a form field-name in JavaScript

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: French, defect, P1)

Description

From Bugzilla Helper:

BuildID:    2002041711

It seems the author of this page expects the JavaScript engine to
consider the two elements "login" and "LOGIN" for the same thing.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. choose "@nomade.fr" in the field showing "choisissez..."
2. fill anything in the two other fields
3. press the "OK" button

Actual Results:  it does nothing... 
(except there in an error in the JS console :
Error: document.forms.logformulaire.elements.LOGIN has no properties
Source File: http://www.tiscali.fr/webmail/login.asp
Line: 112
)


Expected Results:  should carry you to another page (so it does in Netscape 4
and IE)


A short way to get around the problem is replacing "login" by "LOGIN" in the
line :       
document.forms["logformulaire"].elements["LOGIN"].name = 'login';
