295513 - Javascript onclick handler makes submit button not work inside frames

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Mikael Nilsson]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050517 Firefox/1.0.4 (Debian package 1.0.4-2)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050517 Firefox/1.0.4 (Debian package 1.0.4-2)

Submit buttons with a Javascript onclick handler do not work when they appear
inside a frame. The very same page works when loaded separately.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

In the attached test case:

1. Load blank__002.html
2. Click button, see that it works
3. Load index.aspx.html
4. Click the *same* button, now does not work.
Actual Results:  
Works outside of frames, not inside

Expected Results:  
Work in both cases

This has now bitten me on several websites, among them my bank, making it partly
unusable.

Actually, it works for me too (submitter) on latest nightly...

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050525 Firefox/1.0+

Now back to waiting for next firefox release....

Thanks, closing.

Reopening, don't use FIXED unless there's an identified code change that
resolved the problem.
