Works Firefox-white page IE

[catelee2u]

I made a register and login page and scripts and tested them and it works great in firefox(after help here;-). I then tested the pages in Internet Explorer and after clicking the submit button on the register page IE just outputs a blank white page. In the address bar it seems to be the php page with the form submitting php script- which is supposed to use header redirect to the next page..the login page and no data from the registration form is sent to the database. I don't understand why.

The code is needed, as i don't understand otherwise, sorry.

Ok sorry...I was hoping it would be something simple and common and easily fixable.

 

My registration script:

<?php
// Connect to Database 
$con = mysql_connect("localhost","username","password");
if (!$con)
  {
  die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
  }

//If form is submitted this runs
if (isset ($_POST['register'])) {

//Check for empty form fields
if (!$_POST['fname'] || !$_POST['sname'] || !$_POST['email'] || !$_POST['loginname'] ||
!$_POST['loginpwd'] || !$_POST['loginpwd2']) {
die('You did not complete all of the required fields');
}

//Check checkbox here
if (!isset ($_POST['check'])) 
{
die('You did not agree to our terms');
}

//Check if login name taken 
mysql_select_db("db_name", $con);
$potential = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['loginname']);
$result = mysql_num_rows(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM members WHERE loginname = '$potential'"));

if ($result > 0 ) {
die ('Your desired username '.$potential.' is already taken - please choose another.');
}


//Check if email already registered
mysql_select_db("db_name", $con);
$email = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['email']);
$emailexist = mysql_num_rows(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM members WHERE email='$email'"));
if ($emailexist > 0) {
die ('That email address is already registered.');
}

//Check passwords match
$pwd1 = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['loginpwd']);
$pwd2 = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['loginpwd2']);
if ( $pwd1 != $pwd2 ) {
die ('Your passwords do not match.');
}

//Check password is alphanumeric
$alphanumeric = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['loginpwd']);
if (!ctype_alnum($alphanumeric)){
die('Your password must only contain letters and numbers');
}

//Check password length
$password = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['loginpwd']);
if (strlen($password) < 5 || strlen($password) >10)
{die('Your password must be between 5 and 10 characters in length');}

// Protect against mysql injection
$_POST['loginname'] = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['loginname']);
$_POST['fname'] = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['fname']);
$_POST['sname'] = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['sname']);
$_POST['email'] = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['email']);




//Encrypt passwords and insert to database
$_POST['loginpwd'] = md5(mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['loginpwd']));
mysql_query("INSERT INTO members (fname, sname, email, loginname, loginpwd) VALUES ('$_POST[fname]', '$_POST[sname]', '$_POST[email]', '$_POST[loginname]', '$_POST[loginpwd]')");

//redirect
header('Location: http://192.168.0.8/registered.php');

//close database
}

mysql_close($con);
?>

 

As I say it works in firefox and takes me to registered.php. In IE it just outputs a white page and nothing goes to the database.

Are you sure its in that code ?

if so, why are you sure ?

I'm fairly sure though definitely not 100% because I am relatively new to php. The reason is because my registration page has a require function that pulls up a php file containing the form which then uses another php file (the one above) which performs the form actions. The form loads okay onto the page and I have looked at the php file containing it and it looks ok to me.

 

<form action="registerscript.php" method="post">
<br />
First Name :<br />
<input type="text" class="tb" name="fname" maxlength="30"   /><br /><br />
Last Name  :<br />
<input type="text" class="tb" name="sname"  maxlength="30"  /><br /><br />
Contact Email :<br /> 
<input type="text" class="tb" name="email"  maxlength="60" /><br /><br />
Desired Username :<br />
<input type="text" class="tb"  name="loginname" maxlength="30" /><br /><br />
Password :<br />
<font size="1">(5-10 alphanumeric characters)</font><br />
<input  type="password" class="tb" name="loginpwd" maxlength="10"/><br /><br/>
Verify Password :<br /> 
<input type="password" class="tb" name="loginpwd2" maxlength="10" /><br /><br />
I agree to the terms <input type="checkbox" class="cb" name="check" value="agree"  /><br />
<a href="terms.php" alt="Terms" target="_blank">Terms</a><br/><br />
<input type="image" src="images/register.png" name="register" value="Register" alt="Register Button" /><br /><br />
</form>
