Is using a session variable an option? I would set a session variable the first time the response is given, and test for it before responding at all. Logic like: if session_var == 1: pass else: do_somthing() session_var = 1 Given the odd behavior from MSIE, I hope that sessions are working :) Troy Michael Geddert wrote:
Hi all,
We are encountering heavy problems trying to get MSIE to work properly with Zope. (No, we don't like MSIE either, but we've got to get this working for a client.)
We've set up a form (with Formulator) which should send data to a script once. But MSIE 6 (with spack 1 applied) does more than that ... MSIE sends the POST-Request from the form at least twice, sometimes even 3 to 4 times. Sniffing with Ethereal confirmed this weird behaviour (at least 2 Posts from MSIE, 1 Response from Zope).
The Problem is that the form-action-object (in our case a python-script) gets triggered 2-3 times as well, which is definitely *not* what we want. (This is how we first noticed the problem, the script sent 3 mails instead of one)
Any help would be more than appreciated.
Regards,
Michael
