Form submission problem

[mimivdg2002]

I just moved a website (it is an asp application) to a new site. This site used to be a virtual directory under another website. When I moved the site to a new site, I made sure that I modified any code that was referencing files from the parent old site. For example the old setup was like this:

http://www.parentsite.come

The site I moved was under this site and was referenced as

http://www.parentsite.com/childsite

Now I moved childsite to be on its own and it can be accessed from

http://www.newsite.com.

There was some code in childsite that was referencing code from parent site. For example there were references such as href="/helpdesk.asp ..." instead of href="helpdesk.asp ..." or references such as href="/childsite/error.asp ..." which I changed to href="error.asp...". I made sure that I have gone thru all the code to remove such references. The new child site works fine now except for one page.

This page is the login page. When the login href is clicked, it is supposed to go to welcome.asp. The code says:
<a href="javascript: submit()" class="btnSubmit">Login</a>. The submit javascript performs validations and uses the following code to submit the form:

document.frmLogin.PostBack.value = "1";
document.frmLogin.submit();

When the form is submitted, it goes back to the old parentsite and I don't understand why it's doing that. It goes back to

http://www.parentsite.com/childsite/welcome.asp

instead of

http://www.newsite.com/welcome.asp.

Can anybody tell me why?

Thanks
M

look for the code that reads...

<form [red]action="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.parentsite/childsite/welcome.asp"[/URL][/red] method="post">

change accordingly to the new welcome page.

I did that. I changed the action of the form to:

<form action="

http://www.newsite.com/welcome.asp"

method="post">

but it still goes to

http://www.parentsite.com/childsite/welcome.asp.

have you done a search on all the web site files for instances of "

http://www.parentsite.com"

??

Yes, I have searched the whole website and can't find references to

http://www.parentsite.com.

That's why I'm puzzeled as to where this is coming from.

Maybe something is hiding in an include file ? ... or maybe something is cached on your browser or the server?

I have looked in all the include files as well and there is no reference to

http://www.parentsite.com.

If it is a cache problem it has to be on the server because I have run into this problem when accessing the application from multiple client machines. How do I clear the cache on the server? I don't believe IIS has a server cache, does it? We're using IIS 5.0. We have no cache servers running.
