    Here it is - no javascript:

    <form action="./xxx.cgi?login" method="post">
 <h1>Login</h1>
 <input  type="text"     name="login_name">
 <input  type="password" name="password">
 <input  type="submit" name="login">
 <button type="submit" name="login">Login</button>
</form>

      I haven't looked at Mechanize's source, but I'm guessing that it doesn't look at <button> elements when parsing the page for forms.

        HTML::Form/WWW::Mechanize don't have a problem with buttons inside forms 

        use WWW::Mechanize 1.75;
my $ua = WWW::Mechanize->new;
$ua->get(q{file:123654789987.html});
$ua->dump_forms;
__END__
POST file:/xxx.cgi?login
  login_name=                    (text)
  password=                      (password)
  login=<UNDEF>                  (submit)
  login=<UNDEF>                  (submit)
