URGENT - Browser not sending form info to perl script...

J

Jamie

I'm using IE 6.0.2800.1106 with WinXP Pro on a company
intranet. Switching browsers is not an option. I'm trying
to process form info but IE will not send the info
submitted in the form to the script. But when the submit
button is pressed, is does activate the script. I know
this because the script is printing the HTML used to
format the the output. Only the user input is not being
processed. Is there an update or plugin I need? Or
perhaps a setting i should change?

HELP ?!

Difficult to say, since we can't examine the (intranet) page to see what's
happening.

In general, ensure that any popup blocker is DISabled, and that Active-X and
JavaScript are ENabled.. If it's relevant, you could also install the latest
scripting engine, here:

Tried installing the latest scripting engine and XP SP1
update and nothing happened. I'm baffled !! Any other
suggestions ??

As far as what's happening on the page...info is entered
into the form (user name, first name, etc.), once the
submit button is pressed, the perl script is executed and
displays the next page (this part works fine). But, the
form info (the name, specifically)is suppose to also be
displayed on this next page...but it is just blank
space...as if nothing was entered at all. I know its not a
perl problem, because I tried hard coding specific info
into the variables and everything ran perfectly.

:p
