For the record, this used to be done for some form-submitting pages in the past, but that was removed several years ago, see 0025969. We are resolving this issue as "no change required", because it was reported against an old version of MantisBT which is no longer supported. We recommend that you upgrade to the latest stable version [1]; if after doing so the problem still exists, do not hesitate to reopen the issue. [1] http://www.mantisbt.org/download.php
