Comment (by julien):
@ramiro: It works with all browsers, including Webkit-based ones, when
using a plain `<select>` widget. The problem here is that the javascript
modifies the widget, in particular its `name` attribute. It's still
unclear to me why Chrome behaves differently than other browsers, but it
could be argued that Django's javascript is responsible for this issue and
that it shouldn't be modifying the widget in such a way.
By the way, the suggested workaround leaves the original `<select>` widget
alone, hides it, and uses the dynamically created 'from' and 'to' widgets
only to handle the UI while updating the hidden widget in the background
with the selected values, so that the browser only has to deal with a
plain `<select>` widget when submitting the form or when navigating to and
away from the page.
