21794 - "DCForum" message board does not work with Mozilla

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 1582

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

Description

[s.marshall]

Posting messages to any message board using the popular "DCForum" software is
not possible with Mozilla, although it works with both current browsers.

This may be a bug in DCForum, or it may identify some problem with Mozilla's
form posting, I don't know. The forum does work in current browsers though and
it would be nice if it worked in Mozilla also...

To reproduce:
1. Go to URL listed (this is a test forum so it should be ok to screw around)
2. Click a "reply" link
3. Enter a name, subject and message body (anything, eg "blah" for all 3)
4. Click the "Post message" button.

Server returns an HTML page "Posting error - please contact your admin".

If you try the same thing on Netscape 4.7, it works: you'll see the new message
added to bottom of list.

I am able to reproduce this bug.  I'll run the standard tests to see what's up.

I succeeded at posting when I manually posted to the server our post plus a
Referer: field.  I'm marking this a dup of that bug...
