OK...first...I'm not a web developer so please forgive ignorance here.

I've been handed a problem with a website that only occurs when using the Safari browser. I can pull up the page with no problem in IE, but Safari doesn't seem to create the URL string properly.

The parameters that should be passed are "zip" and "Specifier". When I use IE the URL string ends with something like zip=11111&Template=Test (which works). When I pull it up in Safari, the end of the url string is z=1&T=T (which obviously doesnt work).

Is there a known issue with Safari that I need to compensate for? If you need more information, please let me know what you need.

Thanks
 
Here's the form that's created. I removed what appeared to be formatting tags.

Code:
<form action="default.aspx">
<input name="zip" type="text" size="10" style="text-align:right;width:150px;"/>
<input type="hidden" id="Specifier" name="Specifier" value="GAF_H_16" runat="server" />
<input type="hidden" name="Template" value="<%=Template %>" />
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Start Designing" />
 
WOOOT!!!! I figured it out.

I changed

Code:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8898-1" />

to

Code:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
