Gentlepersons:

In the new Explorer11 (without compatibility mode), and Firefox, I see data coming from the browser in the following form:

query: $VAR1 = bless( { '.parameters' => [ 'POSTDATA' ], '.charset' => + 'ISO-8859-1', 'POSTDATA' => [ 'ip=56.80.2.70' ], '.fieldnames' => {}, 'escape' => 1 }, 'CGI' );

However in Explorer8.0 I see the data from the borwser in the following form:

query: $VAR1 = bless( { '.parameters' => [ 'ip' ], '.charset' => 'ISO-8859-1', 'ip' => [ '56.80.2.70' ], '.fieldnames' => + {}, 'escape' => 1 }, 'CGI' );

This is likely a javascript issue but if anyone has seen this problem in the monastery, perhaps you may be able to assist.

The latter form works with $query->param("ip") whereas the former does not.

Also the form displayed seems to be different in how certain objects are rendered.

Thank You
