Re: [Zope] problem with a form in IE 7

Has nothing to do with Zope but...
Use Firefox to debug it and you'll get to see the error.
put method=post on form tag and the submission won't be visible in the URL.

2008/12/11 C baiew...@gmail.com:
 We are running Zope 2.9.8 on Macintosh OS X Server 10.5.5 behind Apache 2.x.

 I am having a problem when trying to submit one of my forms in IE 7.  This
 only happens on Windows XP and it only started happening recently (we think
 in the past week).

 The form contains several select boxes.  When the user selects a value from
 one of the select boxes, it submits the form and processes the selection.
 The error I receive is an IE error that says:Internet Explorer Cannot
 Display the Webpage.
 And for some reason, all of my selectbox values are showing in the URL as
 parameters.   This is not supposed to happen.   If I remove the parameters
 from the URL line and press enter, it works fine.

 I have another page that works similar to this one (with multiple select
 boxes that submit the form upon selection), that doesn't experience the same
 problem.

 I even changed my form action to go to a plain html page, and it still tries
 to pass all of my form variables in the URL string.

 I went to Microsoft's trouble shooting page for this error.  I've tried
 deleting my browser history, clearing out any cached items, and also
 re-starting IE without Add-Ons.  The server has been restarted as well.
 None of these options have resolved the issue.

 Neither the Apache log nor the Zope error log shows these errors.
 Has anyone encountered this problem?  If so, what have you done to resolve
 the issue?

I've had this happen with method=get in the past. Changing to post fixed it
but...
May be worth checking zope.conf:

No. Don't fiddle with that. Get the form right. That's the basics.
It might be worth reading up and understanding the basic difference
between POST and GET and which to use when.

Re: [Zope] problem with a form in IE 7

2008-12-15 Thread C
It turns out that Internet Explorer doesn't like it when you pass more than
141 form variables with a single submit. Our site collects employment
applications and once we hit 142 applications the page broke for anyone
using IE7 on XP.

I wasn't suggesting that he fiddles with it, but that someone else may have 
already fiddled, so therefore to check that the default was still extant.

Our uses are recommended to use Firefox, all these sorts of problems go away
