On the next page, using Firefox, removing the button submits the form, but adding the button does not.
How to prevent the remove button from submitting the form?
function addItem() {
var v = $('form :hidden:last').attr('name');
var n = /(.*)input/.exec(v);
var newPrefix;
if (n[1].length == 0) {
newPrefix = '1';
} else {
newPrefix = parseInt(n[1]) + 1;
}
var oldElem = $('form tr:last');
var newElem = oldElem.clone(true);
var lastHidden = $('form :hidden:last');
lastHidden.val(newPrefix);
var pat = '="' + n[1] + 'input';
newElem.html(newElem.html().replace(new RegExp(pat, 'g'), '="' + newPrefix + 'input'));
newElem.appendTo('table');
$('form :hidden:last').val('');
}
function removeItem() {
var rows = $('form tr');
if (rows.length > 2) {
rows[rows.length - 1].html('');
$('form :hidden:last').val('');
} else {
alert('Cannot remove any more rows');
}
}

You are using the HTML5 button element. Remember, the reason is that this button has a default submit behavior, as stated in the W3 spec, as follows: W3C HTML5 Button一个>
So you need to specify its type explicitly:
To override the default submission type. I just wanted to point out why this happens.
