Given the following html, 2 radio buttons become selected,
and it is impossible for the user to deselect either button...
<html>
<body>
<form>
<INPUT checked TYPE="radio" NAME="AccountNum" VALUE="0987654321" CLASS="radiowhite">
0987654321 <br>
<INPUT checked TYPE="radio" NAME="AccountNum" VALUE="0123456789" CLASS="radiowhite">
0123456789
</form>
</body>
</html>
While this may be bad, silly html (the fact that 2 inputs are listed as checked,
I can't actually see in the specifications where this is considered illegal html
(just a recommendation to avoid other than exactly one "checked"). Perhaps I
missed it. In any case even if it is illegal html, it would be nice if mozilla
handled it better. Perhaps by implication this html could be considered illegal
as there is probably no way to display it "correctly"
Unfortunately the above does occur in real life, and has cost me money (don't
worry, I don't blame mozilla, its bad html)...
at http://www.virginmobile.com.au if you log in to "my account" (which I'm
guessing you cant ;) where the account has more than one mobile, and you attempt
to top up your mobile account, the radio buttons for all your mobiles are
selected and you cannot unselect any. This means that you can only top up the
phone number that happens to appear first! (no matter how many times you click
on the second number). As such, when attempting to top up my mobile, only my
wife's mobile was toped up, to an amount she would take years to use. The mobile
company involved has refused to transfer the money back !!! (and has refused to
allow me to submit a bug report to the webmaster regarding the problem).
Anyway, probably would be good if mozilla could cope with this somehow, as I
guess technically it probably should ignore all but the first "checked" in a
group of radio buttons.
I've used mozilla 0.9.7 and netscape 4.78, both suffer similarly.
thanks,
Andrew Mitchell
