I added <head> and <body> parts to the page and now it works. I saw something in the developers' guide that one needs a <head> for the action URLs to resolve properly.
It's a bit weird, since I tried the action with action="<dtml-var absolute_url>/doCompare" and it didn't help (until adding the <head>).
It's also weird because it was working before.
But at least it's working now

I had a Zope product that was working OK about a year ago. Now it's not. It seems the form action is not having any effect when I click on the button in the interface. As far as I can tell, the action is never called.
Whether or not the action is activated is not a Zope but a browser issue (provided the form is rendered correctly).
You might use a TCP logger (e.g. Shane's "tcpwatch") to find out what goes on between your browser and Zope.
