FF 4b7: $(form).submit() does not work

[anonymous]

$('#id').submit() does not work with Firefox 4.0 beta 7, if the submit-handler was assigned later than $.ready()

Here is a testcase:  http://jsfiddle.net/3vkpk/7/

Thanks Markus

Thanks for taking the time to contribute to the jQuery project by writing a bug report and providing a testcase! I tried your test case in FF 4.0 beta 7 on WinXP and it worked as expected.

If you feel this ticket was closed incorrectly and the problem still persists for you, feel free to report back with a reproducible test case and request the reopening of this issue.

No, it does not work. You will fire the submit, not the "alert()"

For me it shows the alert but doesn't execute the actual submit as preventDefault gets called and is working too.

Please provide information on what platform you are on? And are you sure about the browser version being FF 4.0b7? Can you copy-paste the last two lines of information from "Help -> About Firefox".

Did you try with a clean install of FF?

Hello,

I got two complains, that submiting won't work with FF 4b7. After an update I could see the same issue. This testcase works in any browser but FF 4b7:  http://doppelbauer.name/submit.php

Stop. Sorry, my fault. I must re-write the testcase.

Did you already? The test site on  http://doppelbauer.name/submit.php works for me in FF 4b7. alert is shown but form not submitted. (Please add information on the platform you are on WinXP/Vista/7, Linux(Ubuntu,etc.)

Just a note -- FF4b7 is beta software and b8 is just around the corner.
