"The page cannot be displayed" in Internet Explore

Post by cookie71 »

Hello,

I'm developing a web application using PHP4, MySQL and Apache. One of the .php pages (the page code searches data in the database) "cannot be displayed" in the Internet Explorer browser window: the browser says "the page cannot be displayed" (this doesn´t happen with Netscape). When I refresh the page several times, it is finally served and viewed in the browser.
Someone suggested that this could be happening because of a corrupt browser. Then I installed Internet Explorer 6 Service Pack 1 again, but the problem remains.
Does anyone have any idea or suggestion? Thanks.

Thats a tought one, however I have a few theories as to why that could be happening. Are you using cookies or sessions for your application? Have you ever tried to view the page on another computer?

The same happened to me with a Logout script for one of my systems. I ended up re-writing it (because it was only around 10 lines of code) and it worked.... Although i have no idea why it didn't work!

Hello, "Duke of PHP":

Yes, I'm using cookies and controlling access to each page, but if the case had to do with cookies, session time-out, etc. the navigation would have led to a special page I programmed that asks the user to formally log-in.
