On 1.7 form is posting even if onsubmit returns false. In 1.6.4 everithing was working good.

You can test it here: http://jsfiddle.net/cxSmk/1/

When you click on "Submit" using 1.7 it will ask you to download bin file.

"return false" only works if you use jQuery to bind the handlers.

Yeah it just needs an extra check in .trigger().

The reason this got through, however, is that we consider inline handlers a wontfix item and don't have any unit tests for them. I will fix it but also point out that inline handlers do not always work reliably in jQuery because they're not under our control.

Fix #10701, .preventDefault if an inline handler returns false.

Baby unicorns are slapped each time you use inline handlers, so do it sparingly.
