I tried this out on mozilla, lynx and netscape (all linux) and got the following results: mozilla 0.9.1 Pops up message: "Access to the port number given has been disabled for security reasons." When I tried to get it to connect to ftp (port 21) - however if you add 65536 to this value, so try submitting the form to 65557 it doesn't complain and will connect to port 21, but gets stuck halfway through the transmission, without submitting the evil data. Maybe there is a way round that though. lynx will connect fine without complaint. netscape communicator (4.77) - couldn't get it to connect even with the trick of wrapping the port number round.
