http://www.sverige.nu/ has a drop-down list in upper left corner of the page.
This list contains INBOX, sent mail, skickat (=sent mail in Swedish) by default.
When I click on the list, I get a confirmation alert window:
Security Warning
The information you have entered is to be sent over an unencrypted connection
and could be easily read by a third party.
Are you you want to continue sending this information?

Both Internet Explorer and Netscape 4.79 open the drop-down list correctly.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log on to www.sverige.nu
2. Point and click on the drop-down list in the upper left part of the window.
3.

Actual Results:  See description above.

Expected Results:  The drop-down list should open.

<a href=""
onclick="document.mboxSelect.submit(); return false;">
around a select?

Comment 3

[Adrian Ulrich]

without the <a it works fine in mozilla..

looks to me like a nasty workaround for buggy browsers..

With the <select> within an <a>-tag, the combo behaves as a link. I'd say that's
the expected behaviour, and so does IE6, which does about the same.

Marking INVALID
