35183 - The sign-in button on my.yahoo.com is non functional

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 35099

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect, P3)

Description

[peter]

Entering a username and password on http://my.yahoo.com/ and pressing the "Sign
in" button has no effect.  The button graphics toggle to indicate activation,
but absolutely nothing else happens.

This appears to be a standard HTML form and does not have javascript attached to
this button.  Obviously one would have to not be already logged in for the
sign-in page to be shown.  Other post/submit style forms seem to work elsewhere.

This was most recently observed on a build from cvs update on Sat Apr  8
12:31:23 PDT 2000, but has been seen for at least several weeks.
