Unfortunately article submission requires Firefox 1.5 or newer. I was able to reproduce the problem you described in 1.0.7. However I was able to successfully submit an article using 1.5.0.7. This is due to the javascript based WYSIWYG editor TinyMCE being required, which would explain why Lynx didn’t work either.
I have raised an issue to either make it work or make the behaviour more friendly.
I guess that the work round from my end is to upgrade. Upgrading to FreeBSD 7.0 stalled when my new CD-ROM drive proved just as incapable of blowing a bit perfect CD as the old one. However I can do a network install, and I’m greatful to you for checking that it will actually work when I get it done.
When I try to create a new article, I type it in, click submit and “nothing happens”

Surely the server should never generate that, I should at least get an error message, malformed post or something.
Checking submitted nothing is found.
I’m running an old Firefox on FreeBSD 5.4, so I tried using Lynx instead, with the same result.
I have a static IP address 80.177.122.150 which might make issues easy to locate in the server log.
