Dear IWDN Collegues I hate IE

[jos]

Right, I've said it before, I'll say it again until they've sniped Bill.

I have my website, right www.wuru.nl
It's not finished yet but let me explain what's wrong: MSIE.

Why? I made this 'uber cool super duper image-submit button'
<input type='image' src='./images/web/login_submit.gif' name='sublogin' />

Right, now my php code checks
if(isset($_POST['sublogin'])) {

But it doesn't work... in micro****ingsoft internet explorer....

In firefox it works fine... now I searched some forums and some say that msie sends more data, whatever I don't care, but it makes it not $_POST['sublogin'] but something else I don't know...

Anyone know how to solve this?

Where is this error Jos? Can you provide a URL?

[Pauly]

Not sure I follow, MSIE6 & Fx 1.5 react the same when hitting submit - Appear to load but stay on the same page ...

[jos]

****, i broke it :| wait let me fix it...

edit: fixed!... the FF part... now MSIE

[jos]

www.wuru.nl

just press login button

[Dan]

if($_POST['sublogin'] != '')

Try that.

[jos]

doesn't seem to work, tried $_POST['sublogin'] and $_POST['sublogin'] != ''

I'm no PHP guy but maybe it's a good idea to clean up errors before trouble shooting? Unrelated or not, you never know how IE will react ;)

[Dan]

Maybe

if(array_key_exists('sublogin',$_POST))

?

[jos]

nope :(

[Dan]

Okay, put this at the top of your code:

error_reporting('E_ALL');

and see if you get errors

I'm getting a bit senile, but I seem to remember something about not being able to use image tags to pass values, that might be why it isnt working... Still looking

I knew I didn't remember it correctly...

Quote from me in less forgetful days:


you'll have to test off of either the _x or _y of the image button, as that is what is passed. So you'd have to test array_key_exists for $name_of_button . '_x' because that is what's passed.

thanks will have to check that out, tomorrow tho, its 7.30 and im still at work. Cya tomorrow!

[Christopher Lee]

Go home! :-)

The funny thing is, Opera and IE are handling it correctly, while FireFox does not.

Sorry missed your post earlier, but the reason you see those is because I have error_reporting on, and they're just Notice errors and no problem in this case, it would be 'nice' to clean them up, but im lazy.

anyhoo, it worked....sort of.... no it didn't... see the submit button part is working i changed sublogin to sublogin || sublogin_x || sublogin_y <- just to be sure :P

but now its still not working, im still unable to log in for some reason (in IE, again ff works fine) i dont have have an explanation of what the problem is so I'll keep checking my code, if i find the problem and i can't solve it, ill be back... trust me :)

[Dan]

Here's the easy way out..

<form action="index.php?do=login">

:)

(Or you know, you can just check to see if username/password are filled in.)

[jos]

No no, it's already working the 'submit' part, it shows errors now if password is is incorrect, username doesn't excist, no username, no password etc.... this part is working, but the actual part of "hey ur data is legit, ur logged in" is not working, no clue yet why, since in my eyes its all php, and it works in FF...

[jos]

I hope I don't get banned for this but ehm... it started working... I didn't change anything I swear! I was pulling my hair and like, 'ok im gonna test it - one more time -' ... and it worked...
