If you update the value of in input field that has type "submit" with a string that consists of HTML encoded characters (such as ) - the html encoded characters are not decoded by the browser, rather they are displayed directly.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
To reproduce, use the following code and press the 'button',
<html>
<head>
<title> Firefox test page </title>
</head>
<body>
<div> Some text</div>
<form>
<input id="tt" type="submit" value="ble æ"/>
</form>
<button onClick="myMethod();return false;">
A button
</button>
<script>
function myMethod() {
var dd = document.getElementById("tt");
dd.value="new value æ";
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
Actual Results:
When I press the button labeled 'a button' the submit button text changes to,
new value æ
Expected Results:
The submit button text should display:
new value æ
Not sure if this is a firefox issue or not since the same behaviour is displayed in IE8
