Ajas, I find it hard to believe that a particular browser type can mysteriously cause mass updates to your database. I would thoroughly research your code as it has to be a bug. It sounds as if there's a unique condition or series of conditions to the update process itself that would cause the bug/mass update -- and the browser diff is probably just a coincidence.
Check your submit process. Install FusionReactor for CF server side, and/or other tools that will help you watch incoming requests from the client/IE: http://www.fusion-reactor.com http://www.httpwatch.com/ http://www.ieinspector.com/httpanalyzer/index.html There's a bunch of these out there, google for 'em. I think once you start watching requests both client and server side.. you'll find a bug. -Steve On Mon, Feb 22, 2010 at 10:11 AM, Ajas Mohammed <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > We have a strange problem going on.
