IE 6 form submit With Javascript

[Prasad Bandaru]

Hi,

I have this weird issue in production with IE6 getting "Page not found" when
form is submitted with Javascript. I have found a KB article that is similar
to the problem that I am having.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/827667/
But it only lists the fix for SP1. I have SP2 and I just assumed that SP2
has the above mentioned fix. But, since I have this issue with SP2, I am
looking to see if there is any fix/patch/workaround for this issue. This is
happening on production server and I have run out of my options.

Has any one else seen this issue?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards
Prasad

Hi Prasad,

I have not encountered the issue, but doesn't the KB article say that it
occurrs for relative URLs that are launched with scripting? Does using fully
qualified urls solve the problem?

There are also some security settings that affect launching programs and
files in an IFRAME.. perhaps check those settings.

You could also try similar code to this that does not use a form submit:

var sURL ='http://myserver/myformhandler.asp?txtAnswer=';
sURL =+ document.getElementById('txtAnswer').value;
window.navigate(sURL);

Hope it helps!

Regards.
