 No to firewalls/AV.  (Actually no AV installed here just now ..)

 Not sure what the best way to test other functionality is.  Pretty much
 everything seems to work apart from these custom fields.

 No (javascript) errors appear in Opera / IE, you just get the red box.

 I don't run a lot of plugins on the svn test but I disabled them all for
 good measure, still get the same results.  It's an odd one.

 Incidentally I don't use custom fields.  But this would be a pain if I
 did.  I can reproduce the same behaviour on my prod site, which is a
 different server, apache, and PHP version.

 In all events, manually adding a custom field by writing in the name -
 value pair always works, only the pull-down doesn't.

 What is the correct behaviour? When you select from the pull-down is the
 name value pair supposed to be auto-completed or is it meant to be left
 blank?  'cos on these they remain blank.
