action attribute in form is ignored

Hi,
I have problem with the form's action attribute. I currently has a form like
<form id="abcd" action="xyz.aspx" method="post" runat="server">
when I visit this form/aspx page with the URL reading xyz.aspx?name=a&age=25 , I expect the form line to be below
<form id="abcd" action="xyz.aspx?name=a&age=25" method="post" runat="server">
but it is still <form id="abcd" action="xyz.aspx" method="post" runat="server">.
can somebody explain why?


I have this same code in different machine and it works fine but in my machine it is behaving different. The only difference in my machine is I have both VS 2003 and VS 2008. I read in msdn forums that having VS 2003 and VS 2008 side by side in the same machine shouldnt be a proble,. I am using ASP.NET 2.0 for the probelm explained above.
