I'm trying to POST from a form a simple username and password onto
another website. Firefox and Opera post the data and results are
returned successfully. The site returns "missing user id and password"
when using the same form in Internet Explorer. This form works fine as
a GET, but I want to avoid this route. The site I'm posting to is
fairly closed and I'm not sure if I can get at the perl/c/whatever they
are using to check out the source. Anyone have a clue as to why IE is
misbehaving or the other browsers are breaking standards and actually
working?
<form name="accessform" method="post"
action="http://site/uhtbin/cgisirsi/0/0/30">
<input type="hidden" value="user" name="user_id" />
<input type="hidden" value="password" name="password" />
<p><input type="submit" value="Submit"></p>
</form>
TIA.
