hmm, I haven't run into this, but maybe it's because the cookie was created when I was still running an older version of FireFox?

(...) Right. But I agree with Steve - I was checking on mapquest, so I have to assume MB is doing something that breaks it specifically. It also breaks the form - hitting 'enter' doesn't submit it, I had to click on the 'submit' button. (20 years ago, 21-Dec-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) Did Peeron even have that problem? I thought we had it the other way around - you had to hit enter, because I didn't have a submit button there. Breaking 'enter' takes effort. Omitting the 'submit' button is just forgetful. (20 years ago, 21-Dec-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
