Hello,
When you use submit type=image, IE doesn't send the name properly.
Instead, it sends x and y coordinates with the name. So, to use
graphical submit for IE, you should test for $_POST["{$name}_x"] and/or
$_POST["{$name}_y"]. In your case, that would be something like:
<form ...>
....
<input type="image" src="images/search.gif" name="search">
</form>
<?php
// !!! This is the changed line:
if ($_POST['search'] || ($_POST['search_x'] &&
$_POST['search_y'])) {
$srchtxt=$_POST["srchtxt"];
echo "Results for \"$srchtxt\"<br /><br />";
include ("../../include/search.php");
} else {
include ("../../include/show.php");
}
?>
Hope this helps,
Vladislav
