FORM POST problem

Trying again..

What can be the reason to a FORM POST script is not running on a IIS5
server, but it works on another one ?

<form method="post" action="test.asp"> </form>
Symptom : The page is waiting for 20 seconds and then displays "0" on a
blank page, even if test.asp does not exist.

I tested the server and found that a simple form method=post script would
not work, so the problem must be configuration on the server. The rights is
set to anonymous access after tips on this news-group before, but still
nothing. Posting the form to a remote site from this one works, but not to
post to itself.

Please help !

Also if the server is using the urlscan.ini, it may be denying the POST.
There is a section called [DENY VERBS], if POST is under there or is not
under [ALLOW VERBS] then the administrator is not allowing POSTs.

hope this helps,
Anthony
