Summary REGRESSION: imdb search button has "Submit" overlaid after going back

This bug has previously been reported in the comments of bug 7691. How to reproduce this: 1 - Go to http://imdb.com/title/tt0120907/ 2 - Click on "David Cronenberg". 3 - Go back using Safari's back button. 4 - The search button is rendered incorrectly. This happens in TOT (r14126). Darin said about this: The new bug doesn't have to do with the button rendering itself, but rather with the way form data is saved and restored. Apparently a null is saved, but an empty string is restored, or vice versa. The fix will be to change HTMLInputElement::state and HTMLInputElement::restoreState so they can distinguish a state of null string from a state of empty string, which should be straightforward.

Comment on attachment 8103 [details] patch that addresses this bug and also a poor data structure for form restore I think it would be worth checking in a manual test for this.
