No submit returned in IE form

[Roger Withnell]

With the simple form:
<form action="<%= Request.ServerV ariables("SCRIP T_NAME")%>" method="post"
name="form1">
<input type="text" name="text1">
<input type="Submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
</form>
If I click Submit it posts "text1=&Submit= Submit".
If I select text1 and hit Enter, it only posts "text1=" in IE (as above in
Firefox).

If I add a second input <input type="text" name="text2">, select text1 and
hit Enter, it posts text1=&text2=&S ubmit=Submit in IE.

Is this by design and if so why?

Looks like an IE bug to me. Few developers make any use of the value
submitted by the <input type="submit".. .> button, so few would notice
or be bothered by this bug.
