248832 - When reloaded page contains CHECKED option - the check is not appearing

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 46845

(Core :: DOM: HTML Parser, defect)

Description

[Seth Rubin]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040614 Firefox/0.9
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040614 Firefox/0.9

When a frame is reloaded, the check isn't displaying in a <select> list
<option>, even when the CHECKED directive is now present.  I'm authoring a
web-page and viewing it with Firefox as I work on it.  

I had a bunch of <option>'s within a <select>, but none was CHECKED.  I viewed
the page in Firefox, saw that none was CHECKED, so I changed my code to add
CHECKED to the first <option> .  I then reloaded the frame in question, and the
first option displayed still appeared unchecked, even though when I did a
view-source for that frame, the CHECKED was clearly there.  When I exited the
page and re-created it, the check appeared properly.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. View a page containing frames in FireFox.  One frame should contain a
<select> radio-button list with no <option>'s being checked
2. Upload new version of page with one of the <option>'s now CHECKED
3. Right-click the frame and select "This Frame - Reload Frame"

Actual Results:  
The <option> in question is still not checked.

Expected Results:  
The <option> should have appeared checked.

An OPTION can't be CHECKED (but can be SELECTED) and a SELECT can't have radio 
buttons?!

My apologies the description - I was confused because I was working on something
else at the same time.  It was an <input type="radio"> tag, not <option> and
<select>.  I've also been noticing other anomalies when I reload a frame - some
label text not refreshing either.  The frame being reloaded is dynamic content -
a PHP page. [Seth Rubin]

Not a parser issue.  You want to reload with shift-reload, not just reload, if
you need to ensure form controls get reset.
