Description

[sairuh (rarely reading bugmail)]

i couldn't find an existing bug for this under this component (unless this is a 
layout issue) --but do dup/reassign if needed. thx!

found this using mozilla 2000.09.07.04 on win98 (optimized).

if i have the following code in a form, the default radio button (Cat, the first 
one) is not displayed as checked.

<input type="radio" name="pet" value="cat" checked>Cat<br>
<input type="radio" name="pet" value="dog">Dog<br>
<input type="radio" name="pet" value="slug">Slug<br>

It works for me on Windows 2000 -- do you have a testcase?

Attachment: Very simple testcase (triggers quirks mode)
