You just cannot use type=button and expect it to work with Netscape.
It's not clear why you are using type=button for the third button,
why not just use the submit type it, using the second name.
>From what I see of your handler code, this should work fine.
If you actually don't want a submit from the third button, use "return
false;" in its onClick handler:
<input type="submit" name="dontSubmit" onClick="doSomething(); return
false;" value="Do Something">
This will produce a button labelled "Do Something" that when clicked
executes your doSomething() javascript method, but does not actually
submit the form...
