From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; FreeBSD i386; en-US; rv:0.9.2) Gecko/20010703
BuildID: 20010703
Using the JavaScript detailed below, a web form is submitted twice. Other
browsers (Netscape 4.7, Konqueror 2.1.1, Mac IE 5), seem to submit just once
using the same code.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a FORM with a submit button that calls a JavaScript function with
onClick="function_name()"
2. Create a simple JavaScript function that submits the form:
<script language="JavaScript">
function function_name () {
document.form_name.submit();
}
</script>
3. Submit the form
Actual Results: The form appears to submitted twice. Presumably this because
the browser doesn't quit after the JavaScript submit, but also processes the
submit button submit request as well.
Expected Results: Submit the form once and give up.
I searched for "javascript submit twice" and "javascript submit double" and
didn't find this bug already entered... :)

OK, the testcase works better if you save it locally and run it.
The Bugzilla server does not like to receive the submit!

<script language="JavaScript">
function submitForm()
{
document.form1.submit();
}
</script>

<body>
<form name="form1">
<input type="submit" onClick="submitForm();">
</form>
</body>

Confirming reported behavior with Mozilla binary 20010822xx WinNT.
OS : FreeBSD --> All.
When I save the testcase locally, load it and hit the Submit button,
I get the usual alertbox warning "The information you have entered is to be sent
over an unencrypted connection..."
If I hit "Continue", I get this alertbox AGAIN -
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true

This has nothing to do with JavaScript Engine.
Reassigning to Form Submission for further triage.
Not sure if this is actually a DOM or Event Handling issue, however -

Thanks for putting together the test case-- it's exactly what I was
describing. That last trick is have the script it's submitted to do something
that let's you know if it's been submitted once or twice. What's come to
mind is a script that writes something simple in a log file or the web
server error log. [ thinks for a moment. ]. The recently attached Perl script
might help with this.

This looks like a duplicate of 85286... "multiple 'password save' and 'security
warning' dialogs on page".
Reopen if I'm wrong...
