2.7.1 -
IBM's OS/2 WebExplorer does not work with LOOKUP 1.3.0b.
Response "Found a selection w/ invalid value. (field #0 of SEL='' is bad.)"
occurs when one attempts to select a state from the second column.
The -p option makes no difference. The same problem occurs with all three
LOOKUP servers.

Can anyone reproduce this problem?
