Here's the cause and a solution...
It happens if you try to do a manual AJAX submit by calling
form.performSubmit(), in Firefox. performSubmit() will try to stop the
window.event, but window.event is not defined in Firefox.
I'm solving it by scrapping the manual submit. Instead, I've added an invisible
submit button and, on change of Select, I invisibly click it. This way works
without having to know what's in tapestry.js.
<form t:type="form" t:id="filterCriteria" t:zone="personsZone"
class="filter">
<t:label for="firstInitial"/>:
<select t:type="select" t:id="firstInitial"
t:model="firstInitials" t:blankLabel="All"
onchange="document.getElementById('filterSubmit').click()"/>
<input type="submit" id="filterSubmit" style="display:
none;"/>
</form>
