Re: IE not setting or retireving cookies

in reply to IE not setting or retireving cookies

It is hard to say for sure without seeing the script, and I'm not entirely sure which set of buttons you mean, but I suspect the issue is this:

<button name='butCat' class='clear' value='0012'><b>Accomodation</b></button>

A bug in Internet Explorer (including version 7) causes it to submit the display value ("Accomodation"), not the value attribute value ("0012"), for button elements.

Since you seem to be using the value of butCat for something, this is likely your problem.

(Another problem you have is a huge number of syntax errors in your markup, I strongly suggest a visit to the validator with an HTML 4.01 Strict Doctype.)

    Thanks dorward, I'm not getting any value at all into the cookie so I'm not sure that this bug will be the cause of this problem.
    As for the validator. Well, (embarassed grin) I finally started putting my pages through it when I discovered this problem and, yup, I've got alot to fix.
      Ok, that bug was causing me problems - thanks for the heads up or I would have been there for even more hours.
