"Discovered that IE and Firefox handle the <button> tag differently. If you have a tag like < button type="submit" name="b" value="abc"> Button Text< /button> When the form is submitted, the value of the parameter "b" is "abc" in firefox (the value attribute) while for IE, it is "Button Text" (the innerText)" ----------- I don't know enough of perl nor of LedgerSMB to verify that this is the problem, but it sure seems to be. Joe P.S - it is not a problem with cookies not being enabled. I tested for this.
