Open the HTML below & click on the "Do it" button 2. Cycle thru the alert's & see that the onclick handler is getting called & invoking the doit() method a second time! <html> <head> <SCRIPT language="JavaScript"> var num=0; function doit(form2submit, btnName, btnValue){ alert("DOIT CALLED: " + (++num) + " time(s)"); var form = eval('document.' + form2submit); var btn = form.elements[btnName]; for (i=0; i<btn.length; i++){ //alert('[' + btn[i].value + '] - [' + btnValue + ']'); if (btn[i].value == btnValue) { //by definition calling .click() will not invoke the onClick handler //http://docs.sun.com/source/816-6408-10/submit.htm#1193782 //but it seems to in FireFox 1.0 ! alert("CALLING CLICK!"); btn[i].click(); return true; } } return false; } </script> </head> <body> <FORM name="formname" action="http://bugzilla.mozilla.org"> <INPUT type="submit" onclick="return doit('formname', 'check', 'Do it')" name="check" value="Do it" > <INPUT type="submit" onclick="return doit('formname', 'check', 'Do it 2')" name="check" value="Do it 2" > </FORM> </body> </html> Actual Results: handler is invoked by the .click() function call Expected Results: onclick hander should not be called, and button should act as if it was clicked

Statistically, we have found that bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code. While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we are asking for your help in focussing our efforts.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved. Thank you for your help in this matter.
