Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in a Browserbase session using https://formsmarts.com/html-form-example and capture the failing GET request and response. Trace the Python SDK request path involved, then verify that the page loads without the Content-length error and add or update a regression test if the relevant test location is identified.

Description

Tried going to this page : https://formsmarts.com/html-form-example

Should see a simple form but for some reason in a browserbase session I'll get "A request of the requested method GET requires a valid Content-length."
