Netscape problems when submitting form

[Anon]

I'm having problems with Netscape when submitting an html form which passes the variables to a php email processor file. I'm getting the following error:

The document contained no data. Try again later or contact the server's administrator.

Despite this message, the email processor program seems to work. However, I would like to know how to get rid of this error message.
Interestingly, I do not get any error messages in Internet Explorer.

Thanks in advance for your help

Are you using <form method=get>? If so, you need to make sure to urlencode() your string in your URL before you send it. IE will encode it for you whereas Netscape does what you tell it to do. In other words, if your URL says

send.php?name=$name&$email=email

and $name is "Bob Smith" then the URL could say

send.php?name=Bob Smith&email=[e-mail]

IE will encode it and make it

send.php?name=Bob%20Smith&email=[e-mail]

but Netscape will send

send.php?name=Bob

and that's it. This means your email won't get sent. Could this be it?

Whoops, I got my variables backwards (make that "email=$email") but you get the idea.

Hi Glowball. Thanks for your response 🙂

Hmm... Well I'm not using form method=get

I'm using

<form action="email_processor.php" method="post">

Also my email_processor.php uses the following function:

mail($email,$subject,$body);

Although I get the error message in Netscape, the info is still sent out. I just wonder how to get rid of the error message since it is not user friendly!

I figured out the problem. I didn't have my html tags. I added them in and it worked fine. Sorry for this post!
