[Alan Perry]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:2.0b12) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0b12
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:2.0b12) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0b12

When I fill in the user name and password on the referenced page, I can't get the form to submit.  This only started happening with 4.0b12.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enter user name and password.
2. Press enter or click on submit.
3. Nothing seems to happen.
Actual Results:  
Nothing seems to happen, the submit of the form does not seem to work.

Expected Results:  
It should log you in and bring you to "http://www.bordersrewardsperks.com/overwhelmingoffer/home".

I have tested this in IE 8, and the latest Safari, and Google Chrome, and it works in all of those.  Also, like stated above, this only started occurring when I installed 4.0b12.

Might just be evang, but moving to Core::JS for now for someone else to make the call.

There aren't any js engine changes in that range.... could you double-check that please?

Given the regression window, I'm guessing bug 561636.

If you click "No, my existing account does not have a password"
it reveals two more <input>s that also have required="Yes".
They are inside a display:none ancestor <div> at first.
http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/common-input-element-attributes.html#the-required-attribute
doesn't say anything about styling so I guess they are still required
even when not rendered.

At the moment, yes.

Double checked and regression range is correct, supporting conclusion in comment 4.

Marking this bug blocking bug 561636 so we keep track of broken websites due to hidden invalid form controls.

Website URL mentioned in the bug no longer works. Also, sign-in to site works perfectly in nightly builds.
