simple html files to recreate the issue

Attached is a very simple pair of html files that demonstrate this issue.

page_a.html has a simple form with an input field with a given value.  page_a.html has a body onLoad event handler that submits the form which takes the user to page_b.html.

page_b.html also has a form with an input field with a different value that page_a.html.  Inspect the page while viewing page_b and the form value will not be the value from page_b, but it will be the value from page_a.  View the source, or refresh page_b.html and the correct page_b values are displayed.

If the automatic form submission from the onLoad is removed and a submit button is added to page_a.html, then page_b.html shows the correct values for the form element, and inspect and view source match.

If the automatic form submission is removed, and a button added to the form that submits the form on page_a with the same javascript as the onLoad event handler, then the values on page_b.html are those contained in the source file, and inspect and view source match.
