The APC interface uses an onClick javascript event to submit changes to control
the power outlets - most annoying if you would like to stay in a shell, but
there isn't anything to do except ask them to put in a real html form submit
button.
I am sure many of their (inadvertent) end users are unix admins in ISP
colos who find they can't control the unit unless they go to a javascript
browser.
Completely unnecessary, as the interface is dead simple otherwise; it toggles
the device state with option values. Allowing a real form submit would enable
scriptable control for admins.
