when you go to bestbuy.com at try to do a search on their website and hit the
ENTER button it will not do the search.  so after hitting the ENTER button, if
you try to hit GO any time after that, it does not work.  Don't know if it's a
moz bug or bestbuy (probably bestbuy), but thought you should look at it as
well.  I will email them as well.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to bestbuy.com
2. type in a  search
3. hit ENTER
4. it doesn't submit
5.  try to hit GO instead
6.  nothing happens

Actual Results:  
nothing happens

Expected Results:  
it should have performed the form submission

workaround:
go to the site
type in a search
hit GO the first time, instead of ENTER first

It's probably due to this function that fires when you submit a search.

function handleEnterKeyPress(formName)
{
	var userEnteredValue = formName.txtkeywords.value;
    userEnteredValue = trim(userEnteredValue);

    if(navigator.appName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer")
    {
        if(window.event.keyCode == 13)
        {
			if(searchButtonClicked)
			{		
				return false;
			}
			else
			{
				searchButtonClicked=true;
			}

            if(userEnteredValue == "")
            {
                alert("Please specify a string to search");
                formName.txtkeywords.value = "";
                formName.txtkeywords.focus();
				searchButtonClicked=false;
                return false;
            }
            else
            {
                formName.submit();
            }
        }
    }
    if(navigator.appName == "Netscape")
    {
        canSearch=true;
        if(arguments.callee.caller.arguments[0].which == 13)
        {
			if(searchButtonClicked)
			{		
				return false;
			}
			else
			{
				searchButtonClicked=true;
			}

            if (userEnteredValue == "")
            {
                alert("Please specify a string to search");
                formName.txtkeywords.value = "";
                formName.txtkeywords.focus();
				searchButtonClicked=false;
                canSearch = false;
                return false;
            }
        }
    }
}

It's only looking for IE or Netscape.
