Confirmed on Linux build 2000060908.

Yep.  You don't even need to go to Slashdot; just use the combo boxes on
the bug page.

I can't reproduce the problem on Mac and Windows using recent builds as well as 
older ones. Reassigned to HTML Form Controls to check on Unix.

This bug has been marked "future" because the original netscape engineer
working on this is over-burdened. If you feel this is an error, that you or
another known resource will be working on this bug,or if it blocks your
work in some way -- please attach your concern to the bug for reconsideration.
