You're a good guy and has been very helpful... let's forget about the two scenario speculation for a sec.  In the last few months some of my HTML FORM element returns double value... for instance,
<form>
<input type="text" id="quantity" name="quantity" size="3">
</form>

And say, the user enter 1 for the input box.  But when the form is submitted,
the value of FORM.quantity is strangely "1,1" instead of "1".
I can't fathom that I change the value of this FORM element upon submission.
So, how come?  It has happened several times.

Thanks.
