From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9) Gecko/20010505
BuildID:    2001050515

the page uses a <select><option></option></select> set of tags to display the
zipcode/town list at the top.  However a listbox is not rendered.

I copied the page locally and added a DOCTYPE to see if it was a Netscape 4
quirk.  It was not.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to http://www.homesdatabase.com/state/VA2919.shtml
2.
3.

Actual Results:  Got the first 6 options just listed as regular text

Expected Results:  should have displayed a listbox with the entries

I did check a copy of the page locally with the <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC
"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
 added to check for Netscape quirk
http://www.homesdatabase.com/state/VA2919.shtml
win98, mozilla 0.9: the first 6 options just listed as regular text (well its
not selectable quite like regular text)
win98, 2001-05-08-17-trunk: listbox displays correctly.
