please be more specific, can you give one example what has failed?
There are many ways to use the form.
I´ve been looking for CPU on ENTIRE SITE, and for CPU on COMPUTERS.
I didn´t test 'Advanced Search', or WebID Search'

Can you retest using a freshly created profile, just for test, no extensions
installed?
You can see what is transmitted to the server, and coming back, if you install
extension LiveHTTPHeaders.

To reproduce the problem, type text in the search bar with ENTIRE SITE selected. 

I had another bug with firefox and I tried a lot of things like creating a fresh
profile and it has corrected this form post problem.

FireFox seem fragile with extention and his profile...

Powlin, could you re-test with a recent nightly (or Deer Park Alpha 2 itself)
and confirm if this bug is still present, please?

Searching on the linked URL works fine for me. My guess is that this bug was fixed either on the website's end or on the browser between the filing of this bug and now. Tested with Firefox 21 Nightly.
