SYMPTOMS

You may receive the following error message when using Netscape Navigator and submitting form data:

Repost Form Data

If the OK button is clicked, the form POSTs the data a second time.

CAUSE

The Netscape Navigator browser is incorrectly responding to the META tag "<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">" that is automatically inserted by both Microsoft FrontPage and Visual InterDev. Specifically, Navigator is incorrectly interpreting the "charset=iso-8859-1" portion of the tag

RESOLUTION

Remove the "charset=iso-8859-1" of the META tag. This is optional information.

STATUS

This problem has been resolved in Visual InterDev 6.0 and FrontPage 2000.
