Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Core :: Layout: Form Controls, defect)

Description

[jw]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050223 Firefox/1.0.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050223 Firefox/1.0.1

On the order form of the www.epitomeexclusives.com web page, when you click
SUBMIT, whether or not you've filled out the form, you get to the following web
page:

http://www.unhcr.ch/cgi-bin/texis/vtx/home

Doing the same thing on IE gets correct web and submission pages

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Go to www.epitomeexclusives.com
2.  Click on Order Now 
3.  Go to bottom of order form.  Or fill out page of order form, either way.
4.  Click 'SUBMIT
5.  You will be re-directed to http://www.unhcr.ch/cgi-bin/texis/vtx/home

Actual Results:  
Got the web page http://www.unhcr.ch/cgi-bin/texis/vtx/home

Expected Results:  
1.  If you filled out the form with credit card info and placed actual order,
you should have received a page on order completion.

2.  If you did not fill out form and just clicked 'SUBMIT', you should have
received an error page detailing what fields were missing.

The actual page is:

https://www.epitomeexclusives.com/ssl/order.htm

Click on submit, and strange things happen.

In Firefox, this is triggering Google's "I'm feeling lucky", which redirects to
UNHCR. (Typing 'cgi-bin' into the url bar has the same effect).

In Seamonkey, you just get an alert: "cgi-bin could not be found. Please check
the name and try again."

Info:

Your credit card info is NOT being sent to the other site.

The problem is this code at the end of the page.:

<a title="http://cgi-bin/http_var.exe" target="_top"
href="http://cgi-bin/http_var.exe"><input type="submit" value="Submit"
name="B1"></a><input type="reset" value="Reset" name="B2"><br>
          <a title="mailto:[e-mail]"
href="mailto:[e-mail]">Contact

Note that the input is nested inside of an anchor tag - I'm not even sure why
this anchor to http://cgi-bin/http_var.exe is even there.

This will at least work:

<a title="http://cgi-bin/http_var.exe" target="_top"
href="http://cgi-bin/http_var.exe"></a><input type="submit" value="Submit"
name="B1"><input type="reset" value="Reset" name="B2"><br>
          <a title="mailto:[e-mail]"
href="mailto:[e-mail]">Contact
