in reply to IE wont post after initial request

At least in HTML 4.01 the form tag requires an action attribute. Maybe that's an additional point why IE gets it wrong.

See: http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#edef-FORM for more info.

    I probably should have given some history about this. I noticed this issue with some scripts that do have the action piece in it. I just wrote a quick test script to see if changes to Apache would help. And being that I am a PERL programmer I felt that typing in act.. etc was too much. But I have added it just to make sure.

    Thanks
