Question

POST form data passes through in firefox, but not IE

I designed a form using POST to send info to an action page, but the form data never passes through to the action page in IE, while it works just fine in firefox. In other words, if I send a form field named "username", then on the action page. I use cfif isdefined(form.username), the action page says its not defined. If I send the form data as GET and change the action page to url.whateverfield it works just fine, but I don't wanna do that. I am running my own CF 8 server, FYI, and IIS on Win Server 2003

    for starters, your html markup is not valid:

    <table>
    <form>
    ...
    </form>
    </table>

    should be

    <form>
    <table>
    ...
    </table>
    </form>

    this DOES matter.

    Thanks for the feedback. I corrected that issue, and made sure the entire page validates, but still no luck.

    Have you tried dumping your form variables in the action page and see if there are really no values?
