form working on Firefox, but not on IE

[zygfryd5]

Hi everybody !

I'm new to this forum so please forvive if this is not the right place to post my problem. I developped the below code from NTK software and added some php coding so that it takes the data from the database. The form works pefectly referring to paypal.com from Firefox, but from IE it doesn't work at all. No idea how come... there must be a conflict somewhere in the form definition, probably at onSubmit, because the form basically doesn't want to submit on IE.

Thanks for any help :-)

<form name="pp1"
action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"
target="paypal"
method="post" onSubmit="return SubmitItem(this);">

Not sure, but I would think the JavaScript may be suspect. Try just submitting the form without the javascript to see if it works first, then add the javascript after.

Thanks, tried doing so but didn't help...

Maybe it is something to do with the submit image. Try changing this:

<input type="image" src="images/cart.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="Make Payment with Paypal">

To this:

<input type="submit" value="Make Payment with PayPal" />

I guess Etono is right, IE is kinda a bitch with the submit images

[zygfryd5]

Doesn't work either

[etono]

do you have a link to the actual form?

[wilmec]

all the <? print tags you have i get problems with them on a windows server using ie6 but find <?= $foo;?> works on most.

[etono]

I believe that <?= $foo; ?> uses echo. I had been using the shorthand for a while, but read on Zend's site (I think) <?php echo $foo; ?> is preferred.

is'nt there a possibilitie that this error is occuring from paypal?
