All in all, I'm no longer suprised when something dynamic (CGI scripts, php/asp/jsp pages, whatever) refuses to work properly with IE ;) Quite a depressing thing to know, this, but you can't always blame the website-owners or the software developers.

No doubt. I'm there with you. While working on the DAV stuff, I found that it totally bombs on a GET on a DAV resource when the Last-Modified header is not returned. (!!) Of course, dynamic scripts practically never return that, so I had to insert the following in my httpd.conf: Header set Last-Modified "Fri, 03 Mar 2000 06:32:31 GMT" </Files> Pretty fuggin broken, if you ask me :-) Oh. Even more broken: it makes you send the time. It doesn't display it in the Windows Explorer / Web Folder like you would expect. The "Modified" column is simply blank. *boggle* Cheers, -g -- Greg Stein, http://www.lyra.org/
