Hi All,
I noticed a strange phenomenon today, i posted a poll on my site and i had not voted yet, so i cliecked on "view results" button, however it took me back to the home page!
Looking at the resulting link, looks like it is misinterpreting the & character and replacing it with &
See sample link below:
http://mysite.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=3405&postdays=0&postorder=asc&vote=viewresult
Digging a little deeper, in the source of the page, the form tag seems to contain the error action is:
<form method="POST" action="forums.html&file=posting&mode=vote&t=3405">
I'm gonna post a poll here to test it. |

I just tested it here and it works no problem...
I'll have to dig into the code, unless someone can tell me which file this fix is in off the top of their head. |

Oh btw, if you press Submit Vote - without selecting any options, a 404 error is displayed. |

Indeed it does, odd. I tested it on my site as well and for me it just redirects to the main forums page. |

Sorry, yes I do. Not exactly sure why it isnt being converted, though I have seen similar cases recently. |

Links with & seem to work fine on my site. Are you using ShortLinks perhaps? |

It does the same thing here in this very forum. Maybe this is a FF issue, in FF click submit vote without choosing an option^^ and youre brought to an error page. |

This might be the problem:
EDIT: Okay odd, different link format altogether, still an error. |

I have not yet tested it, BUT that site is using phpbb3!!!!
Do i need to register a new usernam/pwd for that site? or will my credentials for this site work ok?
Looks cool!! |

I don't believe its using phpBB3. It is just a different template with some mods.
It is a new login. |
