15185 - SELECT box does not fill with javascript function (onchange event)

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 15133

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect, P3)

Description

[Keith Lesch]

When you select an item in the first select box, the second select box (user)
should fill with a list.  The list for "my" is only 4 names, while the list for
"your" is many more.  Nothing happens on either of these events.  A login cannot
be successfully completed unless all 3 of these elements are submitted.

I have created this page solely for your use at mozilla.  It is a duplication of
the major features of another page which you cannot access, therefore it will
not submit to any particular page, but produce a page not found error when you
get it working.  There are two major problems with this page which cause the
entire application behind it to be inaccessible.

I'm seeing (in Linux viewer 1999-09-29):

JavaScript Error: ReferenceError: LoginForm is not defined
URL: http://worldzone.net/misc/lesch/main.html
LineNo: 283

which probably means the JS isn't running at all.

The problem seems to be that the form object isn't available directly within the
event handlers on the form elements.

Changing component to DOM Level 0 and reassigning.  This is not a core
javascript bug.

Reducing severity from critical to major.  Perhaps it should just be normal?
