What I believe he is doing is this.... 1. Type part of the message 2. Attach a large file (which on a dialup connection, could take up to 5 minutes to upload). 3. While the attachment is being uploaded, the form is still shown.... so he is continuing to type the message in the window. 4. Attachment finally is finished being streamed to the server, so the form submits and refreshes the page. Since the form was technically submitted before he began typing the rest of the message, only the part that was there before he hit the "Add" button was actually sent to the server. This is fundamentally how forms work, there isn't much that you can do about it that will work in all browsers with 100% reliability. Javascript is the only way, but thats not a good way to do anything IMO. Jimmy ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
