Occasionally when clicking on a submit button, the browser will attempt to
re-submit the data ending with a "document contains no data" alert box after a
number of re-tries. This is really annoying when attempting to send web-based
mail and posting multiple copies of the same mail to the receipient.

what version are you using?
I have had exactly the same problems, on boards/guestbooks without
formkey/multiple post checking it posts 8 - 20 times after hitting the submit
button only once, spamming the message board/guestbook, then finally gives a
document contains no data alert dialog (grr alert dialogs suck)

speaking of double POSTs...
the solution here is probably to implement the Expect 100 Continue HTTP/1.1
logic and/or to never restart a POST transaction... even if we think the server
never received the request.

Had this happen as well, but not since upgrading to version 1.1-final and
1.0.1(NS7); maybe this is just a coincidence. Haven't tried with 1.2-alpha.
In earlier versions, when the bug occurred on my system, it always posted
exactly nine times--no more, no less. Happened more than a few times in
CGI-based chat rooms, with results which generally angered most of the other
participants. :-)
Another manifestation of the bug I stumbled across, this one from a user of
1.1-alpha: http://www.delacour.net/mt/mt-comments.pl?entry_id=579 Again, it's
exactly nine times.

could be dup of bug 177326, especially as in that bug the page was also
requested nine times.

i think this is the same as bug 177326, which is now fixed on the latest nightly
trunk and branch builds.
