Missing form data

I've been trying to track a problem for the last two weeks and finally narrowed it down to Firefox 9.0.1. When processing a form, we were losing the "State" in the address. It was being returned to the POST program as null regardless of what value was entered in the form.

In looking for why is would work in one location and not another I finally realized that one test machine was using MS IE and the other Firebox as the default browser. When tested on ALL machines the form works fine in IE and loses information in Firefox.

If this is for your web site, the solution may involve a small change to the select control, or to the way your scripts dynamically update that control. However, without access to the page, that's just a guess.
