| Subject: | HTML::Form not submitting submit button name/value |
If you have a HTML form like
<form>
<input type=submit value="Upload it!" name=n>
<input type=text name=t value="1">
</form>
then after clicking on the 'submit' button, the browser will send a
query string like
?n=Upload+it!&t=1
to the server. HTML::Form, however, skips the name/value of the submit
button and just sends
?t=1.
Is this intentional or an oversight?

P.S.:
So I turned to the libwww test suite and looked at t/html/form.t:
$f = HTML::Form->parse(<<'EOT', "http://localhost/");
<form>
<input type=submit value="Upload it!" name=n disabled>
<input type=image alt="Foo">
<input type=text name=t value="1">
</form>
EOT
#$f->dump;
ok($f->click->as_string, <<'EOT');
GET http://localhost/?x=1&y=1&t=1
EOT
Is "x=1&y=1" a standard if there's an input image? My browser (FF3)
doesn't seem to think so.
