Issues with script in IE

[aeroswat]

Internet Exploder is giving me problems with this and I was just curious if anyone might know why

 

if( isset($_POST['Submit']) )
{
$mysql_host=DB_HOST;
$mysql_database=DBA_DATABASE;
$mysql_username=DBA_USER;
$mysql_password=DB_PASSWORD;

	_mysql_test($mysql_host,$mysql_database, $mysql_username, $mysql_password);
		$print_form=0;

		ob_start("ob_gzhandler");
		header('Content-type: text/plain');
		switch($_POST['Submit']) {
			case 'orders':
				header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="'.$_SESSION['SESS_FIRST_NAME']."_orders_".date('m_d_Y_h-iA').'.sql"');
				break;
			case 'live':
				header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="'.$_SESSION['SESS_FIRST_NAME']."_liveorders_".date('m_d_Y_h-iA').'.sql"');
				break;
		}
		switch($_POST['Submit']) {
			case 'orders':
				_mysqldump("tblOrders");
				break;
			case 'live':
				_mysqldump("tblLiveOrders");
				break;
		}

		header("Content-Length: ".ob_get_length());

		ob_end_flush();
		switch($_POST['Submit']) {
			case 'orders':
				mysql_query("TRUNCATE TABLE tblOrders");
				break;
			case 'live':
				mysql_query("TRUNCATE TABLE tblLiveOrders");
				break;
		}
}

I might know. But I definitely don't without knowing what the issues are.

The issue is that it is not downloading the file. Also it is not Truncating the table. This works in firefox tho. Is the content header wrong for IE?

[aeroswat]

From what I can tell I think it's the ob functions but I'm not exactly sure. I need these functions in order to stop the page from outputting EVERYTHING to the file. There is tracking code that my host slaps on at the end of every page from their server and this messes stuff up if I leave it in there.

Ok so I don't think that its the ob functions anymore. I commented those out and they still don't show up. What I'm thinking is that for some reason the POST variables are not getting submitted although I don't know what the case for that would be. This is the code for my form.

 

<form action="" method="post">
<div style="position:relative;left:200">
	Reset Orders       <input type="image" src="delete-order.png" title="Permanently Delete Orders" name="Submit" value="orders">
</div><br /><br />
<div style="position:relative;left:200">
Reset Live Orders <input type="image" src="delete-order.png" title="Permanently Delete Live Orders" name="Submit" value="live">
</div>
</form>

 

Is there no one out there that will even attempt to help me with this?

I have found that the buttons are not sending POST variables at all... Is this because the input type is an image? Can't imagine why it would act like that in Internet Explorer. Can anyone at all help me?

use an onClick to submit the form

Can't do that because I need the name and value of each of the buttons. I changed it to using a css submit button instead. Found out that Internet Explorer isn't following the correct way of doing things as far as this goes. The only thing that is sent with an image or button input in internet explorer is the x and y coordinates of the specific input. Nothing else. All other browsers work as expected and send the coordinates plus the name/value pair. Thanks for trying to help me.
