PHP/Apache Gurus? IE Refreshing Trick

Anon

I'm trying to let a mate test his website which is currently on my local machine.

http://213.106.162.187:666/

He says it doesn't work. I tried some friends on msn, didn't work for them either. I told them to turn off Friendly error messages, to see if it was giving an error. After that, one guy said it worked, BUT it's refreshing like mad.

I had a similar refreshing problem with a site once, but couldn't reproduce it for people to try.

If anyone could try that url, and figure out why it isn't working normally, it'd be greatly appreciated (note, this is my laptop, so the server will only be running for the next few hours)

Many thanks,

Danny Tuppeny

Worked fine with Opera and Mozilla. When going through a squid proxy it didn't work at all. As soon as I bypassed squid all went well. Hope this helps a bit. No IE though, hardcore Linux dude here.

PS. Nice choice of port though if I did use IE, I'd think it over three times before connecting.

lol, I chose that port cos it wasn't working! >:o(

To get it to work in IE, you've got to turn off friendly errors (Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Show Freindly Error Messages)

then you'll see the problem 🙁

I got a telnet log from someone, headers look like this:

[ html page was here ]

all the way through, funny characters, like:

--
h="1" class="side
57f

tabletitlecell"><img src="images/spacer.gif" width="1" height="1"></td>

I think that's to do with the transfer-encoding...?

There's also linebreaks all the way through it:

--
s="sidetabletitlecell">(br)
(br)
Top Tones(br)
</td>(br)
<td widt(br)
h="1" class="sidetabletitlecell"><img src="images/spacer.gif" width="1" height="(br)
1"></td>(br)

<td widt(br)

Anyone know if this could be causing ie to have fits??

works fine on IE on Mac OS X 1.2

Yeh, I just solved it 🙂

I turned buffering on in php.ini and all works fine.

This has to be some sort of bug with either the way php is sending the page, or with ie recieving it...

I've submitted a bug report at php.net and offered to change the buffering back over if they email me so they can see it...

It's a bit freaky!!
