2001041704 Mac trunk Goto URL type keywords, say "HIV AND brain". Hit Return. Result:Mozilla gives you the submission security warning twice. Expected result:Once is appropriate, as hitting Go button in this form does. This confuses user and increases the chance of hitting return key too many times to cause unresponsive browser by double rendering described in bug 76146. Maybe a JS problem.

Looks like bad page design to me: 1) Pressing Enter in a text input will submit the form on: IE, Nav 4.x, Mozilla, Opera, ... 2) This page includes code that detects the Enter keypress and calls form.submit(), which immediately submits the form on: IE, Nav 4.x, Mozilla, ??? The page does not cancel the key press event by returning false, so both submits go through, hence, two warnings. Two requests are made to the server by: IE We only make one request. The problem probably only shows up if you have warnings turned on for insecure form submit. In this case, we would warn twice that the form is going to submit, and the extra delay *might* cause the form to actually get submitted twice. It would be nice to get rid of this second warning / second submit, but since other browsers do it, and the page design basically says to do just that, I'm moving this off to Future.

I am not sure if it is related, but form submission at the URL below causes a similar double warning, and OK'ing only the first one loads the result in the window with the second warning hiddin behind, and the window stops responding: http://www2.uclick.com/client/wpc/bo/ To reproduce the problem in form submission, you choose the date from the list below "Archive", and click "Click". You get the security warnings, and you just click OK to the first one and wait for the window to load the new content. 2001062116 trunk.

Bug 89888 is a different bug. It is not related to the code on the page, as it happens in all situations that call for insecure form submission warnings, where it was formerly working as expected. Also, 89888 began with the 20010706xx trunk builds.

The proposed fix(es) to bug 72906 will fix this too (it will disable JavaScript submit). Setting dependent and taking.
