Details 
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021213

I don't really know if it's a Mozilla problem, but when entering that site the
page doesn't redirect to another page. The source of that page contains
'document.Frmredir.submit();' that doesn't seems to work

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.surf to www.skynet.be (http://www.skynet.be/index.html?new_lang=nl) (sorry ,
is a Dutch site)
2.In the left frame there are a few field , just below. 'Ik zoek op Easy.be'
  In 'Wie (naam,firma') enter for example 'schelstraete', In 'Waar' enter for
example 'nevel' and press the 'Go' button
3. Another window will open

Actual Results:  
Another page will open - like it should be - but it contains the text 
'Indien deze pagina niet automatisch wordt doorgelinkt, klik dan hier'. Which
mean: 'If this page doesn't automatically redirect, click here'.


Expected Results:  
Mozilla should automatically redirect to the new page.

Tested with build ID 2002121321. (linux build)
Link of the page that contains the redirect javascript:
http://www.roularta.be/rd/redirect.asp
Summary: document.Frmredir.submit(); → document.Frmredir.submit(); problem
JS Console says:

Error: document.Frmredir has no properties
Source File: http://www.roularta.be/rd/redirect.asp
Line: 31

the form works fine if the page has a <body> tag.

==> DOM 0 for further investigation.
Evang if <body> is actually required in this case.

attachment 109344 [details] is not appropriate.
The <form> and <script> on www.skynet.be are inside <body>,
and <script> is previous to the form.

Changing to All.
Old summary:
document.Frmredir.submit(); problem
New summary:
document.forms has no properties if script is in body and previous to form

Is this Evangelism issue? or dup of bug 178258 or bug 144780?

it is certainly appropriate for this bug.  the URL (redirect.asp) for this bug
has NO <body> tag and has the <script> AFTER the <form>.

the testcase you has never worked (even in NS4) and will probably never work
because the script is processed before the <form> is parsed.  The first testcase
*does* work in NS4, although it has not worked in Mozilla, back to 0.9.7.

If the fixing the testcase is WONTFIX, then this bug should be in Evang.

BTW: the first skynet page (the one with the search form) doesn't work now.  I
filed bug 213155

Then, backing the summary and URL.

If so, I think this is a dup of bug 178258, although I can't see that
in http://www.roularta.be/rd/redirect.asp.
URL: http://www.skynet.be/index.html?new_l... → http://www.roularta.be/rd/redirect.asp
Summary: document.forms has no properties if script is in body and previous to form → document.Frmredir.submit(); problem

agreed

> I can't see that in http://www.roularta.be/rd/redirect.asp.

I get endless redirections going to the URL itself (cookie problem).  I think it
has to be opened from the search form (which no longer works).
