[ome-users] no login at IE7. .. .

[Zhou, Mi]

Hi,

As in my earlier post, showENV.pl won't run in IE. If I change
$CGI->header(-type='text/plain') to 'text/html', it will run and return
the variables. 

If I pass parameters in the URL, Serve.pl won't run. Without the
parameters, it will. 

Any idea?

Thanks,

Mi

Yes you're right!

No, only the home page works. I finished to install a plugIn similar
extension as Firebug at MSIE and so I could see that MSIE sets the
Cookie. So it is not returned well to the server.
I'll tryto find  out to find the error (maybe Apache configuration? Or
the perl code?) But it's strange that it worked at Curtis system.
Maybe he uses some Session Management modules of Apache?

Have a nice weekend
