PHP and NETSCAPE 4.5

cbazin

Please Help.
I am having trouble with Netscape 4.5.

It works in IE and Net6. But when I use 4.5 and it finishes checking for errors and it actually SENDS it too.. but then the page is blank (but I can see that the background was created)!

Does NET4.5 not like combining PHP and HTML?

confused.

You thing YOU'RE confused, you should read this post!
j/k (sort of)
You don't explain what 'it' is at all, but PHP is a server side language. PHP does not care what browser is viewing it and the browser thinks it is looking at HTML (because it IS) Your problem is in any client side scripting your are running, including but not limitted to HTML or Javascript.

I think I took out too much information when I first sent it.

My php-script does this:

Checks to see if a form was submitted

If NO:
Displays a text page
On that page it displays a form which action is set to
<?=$PHP_SELF?>

IF YES:
Checks to make sure that data was entered in two fields
Mail the from data.
Displays the same text on the page
Don't display form again... just say THANK YOU FOR SUBMITTING

It works wonderful in Internet Explorer (all versions) and Netscape 6. However in Netscape 4.5 the "NO" condition works fine. But after the form IS submitted and the "YES" condition is satisfied.. it checks the validity of the data, it even MAILS it off. However, it won't display the text on the page nor display the thank you for submitting.

Any ideas?

What do you see when you check the source on the page that will not display?

I don't know about N6+, but all Netscape versions up to 4.7 were very fragile if the HTML was a little off. One table tag not closed and you might not be able to see the page at all. Meanwhile, IE would happily show the page the best it could, even if the missing tag made it look like crap. It sounds like you might have neglected closing a table tag or something. If you have the whole page enclosed in a table, IE will appear to display the page perfectly even if you do not close the main table.

BINGO! had a </div> from a previous layer that since was converted to a table.

You are a genius!

Thank you!😃
