Oh, on that note, I remember someone else mentioning that some browsers don't pass stuff properly if the html for the form is improperly nested, i.e. years ago when I started, I used to use
<table><form><tr><td></td></tr></form></table> In order to eliminate the quarter inch or half inch margin on the top and/or bottom of the form ( this was before I started working with style sheets )... In this example, make sure your form tags are either inside of a <td> or <th> or outside of the form... And double-check your table tags to make sure they all validate properly, i.e. a missing </td> or the like might render properly on the form page in ie for Mac and then screw up the form so it doesn't pass a field or two... this might be especially helfpul if it turns out the form fields not being passed are all huddled together at the bottom of the form. hth Isaac Dealey Certified Advanced ColdFusion 5 Developer www.turnkey.to 954-776-0046 > I've seen this happen on Mac's using IE 5.
