This could ofcourse be a case of your application server not being http/html complient. As Internet Explorer is less picky that could explain things. What happens if you do the test directly to the application server, bypassing the proxy? Krist -- krist.vanbes...@gmail.com kr...@vanbesien.org Bremgarten b.
