Streamwrite class works in Firefox but not IE

Question

So here's the code in C# .Net.

        string linie = txtFirstName.Text + "," + txtLastName.Text + "," + txtBirthday.Text + "," + txtEmail.Text + ",";

        StreamWriter write = new StreamWriter(@"D:/Hosting/2691577/html/gshccadmin/site1/excel_formdata/birthday_club.csv", true);
        write.WriteLine(linie);
        write.Flush();
        write.Close();`

Anyone know why this code behind function works in Firefox but not IE. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

This is server-side code that is not dependent on the browser.

I'm guessing whatever is triggering this code from the client-side has a browser specific bug that is causing the code to not be called (or be called with incorrect parameters).

What does the content of your csv file look like? IE likes to auto-format XML and other types data to "look nicer" for the user, which sometimes removes the actual intent of the data to be rendered/displayed.

You may need to change the structure/content of the data in the source file, or dump the contents into an HTML literal control in order to get it to render properly.
