Re: Is Safari right or wrong? Should "display: none" prevent form elements from being submitted?

I am not sure that is quite so as an element which can be alternately 
displayed and not displayed should be able to have dynamically-generated 
content and dynamically-set properties persist between states and there may 
be good reasons for accessing such content and properties while an element 
is not being displayed.  Also, "display: hidden" leaves an element's space 
in place, so the visual effect is not the same as "display: block", but 
thank you for the suggestion.
