I notice often that if I start to enter information into a page form before the page in completely loaded, when the page finishes loading, the form entries all reset to their defaults. Can anyone else confirm this? I can't see how to get a reproducible case except by making a sample page with an enormous amount of graphics.
This is usually the result of poor coding on the site, rather than anything to do with the browser. When you find a site that behaves like this, view the source and hunt out an "onload" handler set either as an attribute of the main <BODY> tag. This handler is often used by page programmers to set their forms to a known starting state. Trouble is, it doesn't fire until all of the page content--including the graphics--has downloaded. Which means if it is used on a graphics-rich page, the user could well have started (or even finished!) typing into the form before the page code wipes it all out...
If you encounter a site that does this, you should nag the site's webmaster, not your browser designers! :) (Alternatively, disable Javascript! :D :D :D)
