I have seen this type of thing happen, and although it is always the
client's fault, it can be tricky to track down. For example, if your
CFINCLUDE depends on some form input, and the browser isn't submitting the
form properly, it can fail to send fields CF is counting on using. When CF
doesn't get the fields submitted, it gives an error.
Specifically, I have seen this happed twice recently with IE5 vs IE4 on a PC
when the form tags for a form were in a certain position around a table. I
can't remember the exact details, but I seem to recall that when the <form>
tags were outside of the table, but all of the input fields were inside the
table, one of the browsers wasn't submitting the fields correctly. Took us
about two hours to figure the problem out the first time.
This could also happen if your code is dependant on something else which
could be browser specific such as a CGI var like #CGI.REMOTE_ADDR#. Not all
CGI vars available in CF are properly sent by all browsers...
I would suggest turning on debugging info on the server and verifying that
the info sent from each browser is consistent, including form fields, CGI
vars, and anything else CF may be receiving and depending on from the
client....
