           Summary: Submit-buttons containing other elements does not
                    trigger form submission
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC

                    l
        OS/Version: Windows 7
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Forms
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: webkit.bugzilla at fizkerinc.dk


When having a button-element with type=submit contain another element (such as a label), clicking the containing element will not trigger form-submission.

Clicking directly on the button (instead of the child element) will trigger submission as expected.


The example urls shows the minimum code that provokes this error. The form-submission prints the current time in a span after the form, to show that something has happened.


The button does receive click-events properly, so adding 'onclick=this.form.submit()' to the button will make the form submit, but that should not be necessary, and also avoids triggering the submit-event for the form.
