Author Postbacks, base URLs and Firefox?

I am buillding a MCMS SP2 site aith ASP.NET 2 and master pages.

I am finding a problem with any buttons on the page and the postbacks
they produce, the postbackas don't seem to work in Firefox but do in
IE.

If I add the robot meta tag to my header then the problem is fixed but
I don't understand why it happened in the first place?

The action set on the form in the page looks like this

action="Home.aspx?NRMODE=Published&NRNODEGUID=%7bB97EE998-D4C7-48D0-BB93-23128B726A47%7d&NRORIGINALURL=%2fSite&NRCACHEHINT=NoModifyGuest"

If I am on the home page at http://localhost/site in IE and press a
button on the page which server side redirects to
http://localhost/Site/somearea - eveything is fine.

Clicking the same button in Firefox will cause the browser to try and
navigate to

http://localhost/Home.aspx?NRMODE=P...T=NoModifyGuest

The server side code never gets executed as the browser isn't posting
back properly.

Does anyone know why this is and why I would need the base tag to fix
Firefox? I don't know what else the base tag might affect so don't
really want it there.

Hi Spencer,
My problem is somewhat related. I am getting the following validation error
in W3C Markup Validation Servicev0.7.1:

Error Line 14 column 101: reference to entity "NRORIGINALURL" for which no
system identifier could be generated.

for the URL:

<meta name="ROBOTS" content="FOLLOW,INDEX">
<base
href="http://10.112.26.181/CDM100/templates/history_default.aspx?NRMODE=Published& NRORIGINALURL=%2fEN%2fCDM100%2fhistory%2
f&NRNODEGUID=%7bAF30FB8C-51AE-47A8-9DAE-1CFBFD51B518%7d&NRCACHEHINT=ModifyLoggedIn">

This URL has been generated from MCMS 2002.
Can you tell me how to resolve this problem? Does the hotfix KB 914782
resolve this. How to request this hotfix?
Thanks
Chinmay
