a format question?

[Geoff Cox]

Hello,

I wonder if anyone has any ideas on this?

I am using prototype-1.3.1.js and formmail-nms.cgi to send some data
and find that the format of the data received by Outlook 2000 is
different depending on whether I am using Internet Explorer v6 or
Mozilla v1.6. I mention the 2 browsers because as far as I can this
the only different factor in the situations.

Can you think why?

Cheers

Geoff

well in your example the data is different try posting two examples with the
same data....

Zoe,

Sorry! I should have posted with same data - but still get same
effect.

Looking at this with hex viewer I can see the ODOA (CR/LF) but what is
putting them in??

Any ideas?

Internet Explore handles white space in HTML differently then Mozilla does.

Here is a small example of it

Give it a look in IE and Mozilla ya may get the general ideal.
An easy resolution may be to remove unnecessary white space in your HTML.
