HTML page with frameset does not load if there is any element in-between </head> and <frameset> tag

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>A Basic Example of Frames</TITLE>
<script language="JavaScript1.2">

function on_load()
{
  alert(" Frameset loaded ");
}

</script>

</HEAD>

<form name="tempForm" method="post">
	<input type="hidden" name="Message" value=" Sample Value ">
</form>

<FRAMESET ROWS="75%, *" COLS="*, 40%" onload="on_load()">
     <FRAME SRC="framea.html">
     <FRAME SRC="frameb.html">
     <FRAME SRC="framec.html">
     <FRAME SRC="framed.html">
</FRAMESET>

</HTML>

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Save above text as sample.html and try to load it in Firefox4b6. 
Actual Results:  
Page does not display. Frameset is not loaded. 

Expected Results:  
Page should have displayed four frames specified in the <frameset> tag.

If I put below tag after </frameset> then it works properly.
<form name="tempForm" method="post">
	<input type="hidden" name="Message" value=" Sample Value ">
</form>

Er... We really broke that?  Form plus hidden input before frameset is one of those cases the old parser made sure not to break, because actual sites use it, last I checked.

Not known until now. IE special-cases type=hidden, so it seems the spec is based on incomplete reverse engineering here.

Filed a spec bug.

The spec bug hasn't been resolved yet, but it's obvious how it should be resolved.
