Hello Gerald, I know it has been a while since this thread was active but I am also having the problem with posted variables being losed & it is also consistant with the problems below - ie if I wait 15 sec (keepalive setting) then the variable are posted ok.
I took the script that you posted (which I have included again below ) & I could recreate the problem with this script. Have tested this on IE 5.50.4522 which is running on Windows 2000 Terminal Server and IE 5.50.4522 which is running on Windows 2000 Professional. I do not have the problem Mozilla or Netscape.
