Thank you for the report.

You made names for <select> and <input> differ, didn't you?
I believe name="" is ok. The problem is that emacs-w3m doesn't
distinguish a form, of which the name is "", from another form,
of which the name is the same but the type is different. So,
this bug will arise regardless of the string length of the names
if all are the same.
I tried fixing this bug in the CVS trunk. Could you try it?
Not tested with more complexed forms, though. Moreover, since
I'm not a form expert, I hope the other emacs-w3m developers
review the changes.
