Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Networking: HTTP, defect)

To get variables cross with kicked maps, I have added them to the URL i.e.

<a href=odin2.php?karteninfo=$karte?zeit=$zeit?typ=$typ> 
<IMG  width=583 height=603 ISMAP
SRC=/cgi-bin/odin2/maps.pl?karte=$karte&punkte=$punkte ALT=Karte>

It used to work fine until Moz 1.3 and still does in Konquerer, IE and what ever
I tested, but now the behaviour changed and only the parameters after the last
"?" - the klicked coordinates - are transmitted in the query string. 
It still works with the ISMAP SRC tag. 
This hack is probably not quite conforming to any standard, but used to work and
I haven't found another _simple_ method to get needed information back when
using clickable maps.

Is this behaviour meant to stay ? or hopefully revert to the "defacto standard"

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. clickable map 
2.
3.



Expected Results:  
The query string should contain everything from the first "?",  including
coordinates

If needed I could set up a site on the internet. So far I only have 4 progams in
the intranet

I made a link like this:
<a href="http://www.mozilla.org/?foo=bar?bar=foo">

clicking it (with an ISMAP image) gave me this:
http://www.mozilla.org/?foo=bar?bar=foo?505,12
which is what you seem to be wanting (or are you looking for a different behavior)

I tested linux trunk 20030716.  If all is well with recent builds, please mark
WORSKFORME.
