IE just don't work depending on some of the IE's version because of the IE's countless bugs. So, a different method of controlling the data output to the browser is needed. That's when I use the fopen() stuffs and it solve the problem. It is evident by reduced customer's calling tech support (us)... Questions about IE problem is something you would have to ask M$ on why it is using hte faulty IE.
