This problem occurs with M11 running on Redhat Linux 6.0 and Windows NT SP 4.
The problem is that if a html page has two or more forms then the http post
doesn't transfer the data to the webserver. I hit this with one of my servlets,
but I haven't found an easy way to reproduce it. The only way that I have been
able to reproduce it is with http://www.deja.com. Trying to perform a search on
deja fails when there are two or more sets of <form></form> that are posts.
Dang It. I just checked www.deja.com and they removed one of their form tags so
now M11 works. <sigh>
I tried to come up with a better test case and figured out some more
information. It turns out that M11 is doing the right thing and posting the
information from the second form. It does work. I think the problem that I hit
may have something to do with tables and input tags.

I just checked, and www.deja.com works for me too. If you can find a
combination of tables and input tags that causes this bug, can you please post
it to this bug? Thanks.
Ok, I've further narrowed down the problem that I was having. The following
html works with both Netscape 4.7 and IE 4, but not with M11 on NT SP4. If I
change the method from post to get, it will work with M11. I just hope that you
guys can reproduce this. Thanks for all of the good work.

I modified the above test case so that you can view the values that are posted.
It is working now. Must have been a transient bug...

I would go ahead and just close this bug. I'm convinced that the problem is not
Mozilla. I can reproduce the bug with Apache JServ and a simple servlet, but I
can't reproduce it via the modified test case using echo.cgi. Mozilla is
posting form data correctly. I just need to dig more on the Apache JServ side
to see why I'm not seeing form data posted by M11. Thanks for the help.
