sample page with problem
5.88 KB, text/html
Details 
found a site that had this:
<a href="mailto:no@no.com"><input value="Send" type="submit"></a>

when pressing the Send button a Thunderbird compose window appear while in IE
the form got submitted

    
    

    
  
I think this is more a problem of the HTML parser than of form submission. Opera
also submits the form.

This isn't a problem of HTML parser at all.  Or of form submission.  The button
just never sees a click event.
