yes, this breaks the unpatched version.

i didn't even know this was valid HTML!

thank you very much!  i patched, byte-compiled, unloaded, reloaded
"w3m-form.el[c]" and voila!  everything works again (until the next micro$oft
invention breaks it).

note that i made a little progress without patching anything by removing the
"(setq w3m-type 'w3mmee)" line from my "~/.emacs" init file.  my question:  is
"w3m-type" determined and set automatically?
