More information. Here is the request parameter map from IE6:
{zfpForm:_link_hidden_=, jsf_sequence=7, zfpForm=zfpForm,
zfpForm:_idcl=null, zfpForm___jeniaPopupFrame=, ajaxZone=null,
collapseKey=, AJAXREQUEST=_viewRoot, autoScroll=}

Here is the map when firefox sends it:
{zfpForm:_link_hidden_=, jsf_sequence=10, zfpForm=zfpForm,
zfpForm:_idcl=zfpPanel:documentListTable:typeHeader,
zfpForm___jeniaPopupFrame=, ajaxZone=documentListZone, collapseKey=,
AJAXREQUEST=_viewRoot, autoScroll=}
