MS IE issue using newlisp webserver

Hi,



This week I decided to spend some time on newLisp and downloaded and installed the latest stable version on my debian sarge box. I also installed the newest wiki and started it using newlisp as a webserver: newlisp -c -d 8080 -w /home/martin/wiki/



The wiki runs just fine on my debian box, I also can use it on my XP box using the firefox browser. If I use MS internet explorer however, there seems to be a problem on saving a changed wiki-page, the browser hangs and waits forever. I tried to debug cgi.lsp and index.cgo to find the bug (which wasn't easy since I'm new to newlisp!) but when the browser hangs the scripts were not executed, so I think the problem is in newlisp itself. Further testing narrowed the problem down to the html-form method=post. If i change it to method=get it works fine (for only small amounts of form data of course).



Have I found a bug in the newlisp webserver? Do I need to setup anything before starting the newlisp webserver? (I did not use the http-conf.lsp yet.)



Thanks in advance for your reply,



Best regards,

Martin Werkman

Try MS-IE 6 which is working fine. We had some other incompatibilities with MS-IE 7 since it came out when using newlisp-tk (the Tcl/Tk frontend), until further notice use the Firefox browser on Win32.
