Hello All,
I have a page (asp.net) that includes a form presented to the user
inside an iframe. When the form is submitted, it submits to a third
party site that requires the receiving form to be a the top page in
the window. Because of this, I'm submitting the form using
target="_blank". I've been using this for some time with no issues in
both IE7 and firefox. Now that I've got a new Win 7 machine with IE8,
it does not work.
IE8 will not pass the form values to the receiving page when the
receiving page is opened in a new blank window or tab. If I submit
inside the iframe, the receiving page gets the values but it has
errors due to the issue that it will not properly run inside an
iframe.
Also, it works correctly if my initiating form is the top object in
the window (but I need it to be in an iframe).
It works correctly if I use target-"_parent", opening the receiving
page inside the same window as the initiating form. I'm using this as
a temp fix but I'd prefer not to make the user leave my site
completely.
If anyone has an idea how to address this, I'd appreciate any ideas.
Thanks.
