Is the Yahoo! Answers Appeal Form broken?

I attempted to appeal a deleted question by filling in the Yahoo! Answers Appeal Form to which their email referred me:

http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/answers/first_app...

However, the submit button merely reset the form to it's original blank state. On checking the page source, the "form" element lacks an "action" attribute. The current XHTML documentation ( http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml ), to which the page header refers, states that this attribute is "REQUIRED" and no default action is provided.

I would report this apparent defect to Yahoo! Answers, but I cannot find a contact email (or other contact information) on the Yahoo! Answers site. Have I overlooked it?

    Maybe, try again later, though make sure it's in the span of 7 days.

    try y_answrs_team@yahoo.com (the missing 'e' is correct)

    Occasionally I get a violation notice because someone has asked a stupid question and doesn't like my stupid answer. I appeal, my answer is reinstated and the person making the complaint gets ignored in future. Because of American compensation culture, Yahoo! aren't allowed to say "You broke the rules". Someone might file a billion dollar lawsuit for hurt feelings. Instead they either say your question / answer has been reinstated or they say they can't enter into dialogue.
