I have a complex classic ASP system that has worked well for years but has recently started having a strange and intermittent problem.
On some forms, folks will report that they click "Submit" but that the form just resets itself (or, perhaps, the browser just reloads the form - my users are probably not able to tell the difference).
Most recently, this has happened to a user with IE8 (we do use ). It seems to happen only with larger forms (ie. more data submitted). We do use an empty action tag on the form to self-submit (ie. ) and we use POST.
We never heard about a problem like this until fairly recently. At first, it seemed that it could be related to "Trusted Zone" settings on one user's machine, but we've gotten a few reports from other places now and it's less clear that it is a zone issue. On my own machine, also running IE8, I never have a problem.
Any thoughts?
