Simple code works in FF and Chrome - not in IE

[echarnley]

Hi -

 

I have the below code in a php file on my webserver. It asks for a project ID, and then logs into an ftp site using that ID as part of the link (I am using the browser ftp functionality with login credentials like ftp://name:password@ftp.example.com). It works fine in FF and chrome, but when you open it in IE, enter the project ID and click on Go, it opens a Page Cannot Be Displayed. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

 

Code:

 

<?php if($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST') : $projectid = $_POST['projectid']; header('Location: ftp://'.$projectid.'@ftp.example.com'); else:?>

 

<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['../PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="post">

<p><strong>Enter Your Project ID</strong> :

<input type="text" name="projectid" />

<input type="submit" value="Go" />

</p>

</form>

<?php endif; ?>

What url is  IE opening? Is it ftp://'.$projectid.'@ftp.example.com or something else, like http://ftp://'.$projectid.'@ftp.example.com?
