This is the error I get:<br><br>HTTP Error 400<br><br>400 Bad Request<br><br>Due to malformed syntax, the request could not be understood by the server. The client should not repeat the request without modifications.<br><br>This only happens in Netscape, IE works fine. Does anyone know of any possible reasons why this occurs?
 
A common problem like this means that you are passing URL parameters that include spaces<br>(w*w.myplace.com?info=my info)<br>You need to use URLEncodedFormat so that spaces and special characters are recognized in the parameters.<br>
 
I also have the same problem however my URL parameters do not include spaces can someone suggest any solutions.<br>Below is what my code is looks like:<br><br>&lt;a href=&quot;ResearcherDetails.cfm?id=#ResearcherID#&quot; onClick='parent.curve.location.href=&quot;../fill/curve2.cfm?&states=#states#&Rname=#Rname#&quot;'&gt;<br><br>Thanx<br><br>
 
tempoman,<br><br>You may not have spaces, but using urlformat may help you, too, since it is possible your strings may have other characters that Netscape can't understand...
