Comments:
I expected that the code provided would allow me to
* open a page (main.html)
* enter data in the field in popup.html
* Submit form on popup.html
* The form on main.html should be automatically submitted and I should see nextpage.html

This doesn't work in IE5 NN4.01 NN4.72.

Any ideas?

main.html
