different browser different results php4

Post by SoToasty »

I know this sounds strange, but I have a big problem. I have a form on a site that uses php to send an email and log the information to a MySQL database. If I am using Mozilla to submit the information everything is fine. If I use IE nothing gets emailed, or stored in the database. I am completely at a loss. Since PHP is a server side script it should not make any difference what browser submits the info right?

Any help will be greately appreciated.

More then likely it's your browser and cache.

Hold [ctrl] and tap [r]. Keep holding [ctrl] until the page is loaded. That should clear out the cache for that page.

I have IE set to check for new version on every visit to a page. If you don't it really mess you up when trying to program :) . But I tried to clear the cache anyway with no luck. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Only thing I can think of is to install both browsers on your local test server (you are running apache, php etc locally?) and echo out the POST (or GET) vars to check what exactly you're receiving from the form.
