304364 - Select box state improperly reset on Back

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Dwight Brown]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6

In the linked example I have a javascript setup to dynamically disable/enable
form fields when radio inputs receive onFocus events.

The drop-down select box starts disabled.  If you select the "Group" radio
option it gets enabled.  However, if you submit the form then press Back it is
disabled again (with the "Group" option still properly selected.)

You can observe the same problem in reverse via:
http://www.improvementroad.com/testcases/dynamic_disable/start-enabled.html
(In that example the select starts enabled but if it is disabled, submitted,
then Back is pressed it starts in it's original state - enabled).

This may be related to

- bug 300016



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the example URL
2. Select the "Group" radio option (select box will get enabled)
3. Submit the form
4. Press the Back button or the "back" link

Actual Results:  
Select box is disabled.

Expected Results:  
Select box should be enabled.

This problem does not occur in Opera [8.02] but does occur in Internet Explorer
[6 .0 SP2]
