I thought I should share this with any web-app developers on this list.

I recently installed the "HTML Validator" extension in Firefox. This caused
me no-end of troubles because "HTML Validator" (on Windows XP) was firing
off rogue secondary requests (!) whenever I was selecting any of my form
submit buttons.

Then I read this blog entry, and realised who the culprit was:

I uninstalled the "HTML Validator" extension and everything was fine again.

Kudos to the "LiveHTTPHeaders" extension which showed the double requests
being generated - though at first it made me think I had a faulty mouse!

HTH somebody who may be pulling their hair out.
