I've never tried in NS.  But I did have problems in IE when I tested some time ago.  I 
sent the form data as "HTML" to a script.  Included in my test form was my email 
address that the script would send the data to and a redirect URL where the browser 
would go to after submitting the data.  After clicking submit, I did receive the data 
via email.  But the redirected Web page would end up as a temp file on the C: drive.  
I didn't do any further testing.  I don't know about the crashing, but are you sure 
you got your URL correct or sure you're sending all the needed data for your cgi-bin 
script to process your form?

If I understand your question correctly, no, you cannot set the "open option" in an 
individual PDF file.  You can set up the application (Reader/full Acrobat) to open or 
not open the PDF in the browser.  So you'd have to set up every computer individually. 
 And don't expect the form to submit correctly while NOT in a browser (if that's what 
you're doing).

HTH.

I have put together a pdf order form with a submit button.  When this 
button is pushed in Netscape version 6x, it sends just fine to the 
cgi-bin.  When, however, the submit button is pressed in Internet Explorer 
5+, either a prompt appears which says that the URL cannot be found, or 
Explorer crashes.

I set the options in the pdf file to NOT open in the browser, but it does 
so anyway.  Anyone else come across these problems?
