Robert,
This was an issue I had reported to Magnus long ago. He had determined (if
I remember correctly) that it was a bug in Netscape handling "large" posts
(by large I am referring to the amount of characters being posted). I dont
remember the particular details other than the error was prevalent in the
0.8.x releases but no longer occured in the 0.9.x and up releases. I think
a sort of work around was added to orion to get around this netscape bug
(maybe?).
Magnus may be able to shed more light on this than myself as he seemed to
have a great amount of insight as to the cause of this issue.
One workaround we used back then was to reduce the amount of data being
posted by a single form by spreading the form over multiple pages and using
a bean to keep track of the data, plus, we found that this tends to be a bit
more user friendly.
Hope this helps somewhat
