Well that's nice. I asked if these bugs were going to be in AOL 8 though.

How about this for a showstopper form bug though?

<form name="t">
<input type="hidden" name="foo">
<input type="Checkbox" onclick="document.t.foo.value = 'test'">
</form>

Now reload the page. The checkbox stays, but the hidden value is 
cleared. This bug alone makes javascript unuseable on forms, AND Mozilla 
thinks this is the right way to do it. It's been filed for a long time 
and they see nothig wrong.
