  ONJava Reader Survey

I tried filling in the Mac one with Moz 1.6, but the form jumped about so much (getting URLs with fragments on the end[1]) that I gave up; its not my primary platform. I thought I'd give it a better go with the OnJava one. Well, after putting up with the frustrating jumps I got to what appeared to be the end of the form... except its not. The bottom of the form isn't appearing any more (and that means the submit button). AAAAGH.


I can't see me doing this again in IE, though.

[1] Looking at the source...shile doing a href="#" is bad practice, the return false in the onclicks on the page should have prevented the jumping page syndrome. Can't immediately see why this is happening.

    Seems to be working now; while moz says it wasnt caching the page, clearing the cache seemed to do the trick.

    However those nonstandard checkbox/radio images (why?) do have another odd effect. I noticed they do 'onfocus="this.blur()"', which appears was intended to prevent keyboard navigation (again, why???). Trying it out in moz, pressing tab twice while in the survey hangs the browser! Niiiiice.
