Hi,

I have a simple HTML form. (I signed up for an autoresponder account, AWeber, and the form is generated by their wizard).

It uses POST as its method.

Here's the problem. Behind the scenes, apparently it isn't passing the originator's URL, which means the person is going into the system as an unverified lead.

They tell me that the browser should be doing this by default, and that if it isn't, I may have some software running the prevents this.

Has anyone run across this?
I'm on XP and tried it using IE6 and Firefox 1. I also tried it on a Mac (OSX using IE5.2).

Thanks,
Susie
 
Oooo, never mind! After spending all day on this problem, I finally figured it out. I was testing this form from an html page on my desktop. As soon as I posted it to the server, it worked fine.
