Just plain wierd...

[Anon]

1. Using Netscape 4.x - Win 9x/Me/2k
   I made my own classifieds in php the problem is when I click "View" the page freezes in NS 4 (& there's nothing in the classifierds - yet)
   on the otherhand, any other function & the script works flawlessly.
   Why ?

2. Using IE 4.x + - Win 9x/Me/2k
   Submitting Forms.

   Every now & then when I hit submit from a form IE comes up with "Page cannot be displayed"

The Form is calling itself: eg action="<? echo $PHP_SELF ?>" method="Post"

any thought's ideas on the issues would greatly be appricated.

Show us the code... ;-)

You want the url or the code for each individual problem ?

The code will take 4-6 files, sporead across include files (for finding the "Bug" - NS 4.x)

The code for the IE prob will prolly take MORE!

Generally when a page freezes or comes up blank in NS only, it's an HTML error.

If you can't find the problem, try narrowing it down by commenting out chunks of code. Comment out as much as you can while still reproducing the error, then post what's left here and someone can take a look at it.

its either a dns bug which can be repair by removing winsock2 from the reg and then in windows set up in the add and remove programs area under communication, you remove and add again dial up networking, to rebuild the winsock 2, or....you may have old entries in a hosts file on the primary dns, open hosts with note pad and check the entries after 127.0.0.1
