Hi,

Sorry for the bit of off-topic post, but I am having a problem with Netscape
in particular on our site and nobody has yet been able to tell me a
solution, other than one..which we can't do.

We use the POST method on ALL forms on our site. First, it "hides" the input
from the URL line, and second we have some forms that send well over the
limit a GET method can handle. I realize a servlet can handle both the same
way, but I prefer to hide the data as well anyways.

So, the problem is, we have clients that need to print muli-page forms out
as they go. The first page of the form they can print in Netscape. But when
they submit that form and the next part of the form (second page) comes back
as the response, they can't print the page. Netscape for some reason does
not display the source (View Source) on a response sent via POST method, and
thus the page wont print.

So the question is..is this a problem with Netscape and thus the only way to
circumvent the problem is to use the GET method? I am thinking we may have
to include a PRINT THIS PAGE button or something on every form and make the
same call to the server with a GET method or something.

So if anyone has had this problem, please fill me in on a way to get around
this problem.

thanks.
