[support] Issue with multisite url creation for edit forms action parameter...

[puregin]

If the problem persists with clean URLs turned off, then
the problem likely lies elsewhere.

     Could you do a search in issues

     http://drupal.org/project/issues

to see if this turns up anything - otherwise create a new
issue.
