we use the following ASP to redirect to some web pages and also collect data on
the way. The link above calls the web page mail_redirect.asp and the code for
that is below, this page collects the data and stores it and then moves on to
redirect.asp before being pushed onto the final web page. I do not pretend to be
an ASP expert but all this page does is store the data sent in the URL and that
is used in the redirect page. How can I change this to work with FireFox works
fine with IE and OPERA

<TITLE>E-MAIL REDIRECTION</TITLE>
<form method="POST" action="redirect.asp" name="MailRedirect"> 
<%'the request vars have been left to support v2.6
Zone = Request.QueryString.Item("Zone")
ContactID = Request.QueryString.Item("UserID")
Campaign = Request.QueryString.Item("Campaign")
Test  = Request.QueryString.Item("Test")
OpenEmail = Request.QueryString.Item("OpenEmail")
EMail = Request.QueryString.Item("EMail")
ON ERROR RESUME NEXT
If Len(Request.Form("Zone")) > 0 Then Zone = Request.Form("Zone")
If Len(Request.Form("ContactID")) > 0 Then ContactID = Request.Form("ContactID")
If Len(Request.Form("Campaign")) > 0 Then Campaign = Request.Form("Campaign")
If Len(Request.Form("Test")) > 0 Then Test = Request.Form("Test")
If Len(Request.Form("OpenEmail")) > 0 Then OpenEmail = Request.Form("OpenEmail")
If Len(Request.Form("EMail")) > 0 Then EMail = Request.Form("EMail")	
If Len(Request.Form("ActionType")) > 0 Then ActionType = Request.Form("ActionType")	

ON ERROR GOTO 0
%>
<input type="hidden" name="ContactID" value="<%=ContactID%>">
<input type="hidden" name="Campaign" value="<%=Campaign%>">
<input type="hidden" name="Zone" value="<%=Zone%>">
<input type="hidden" name="Test" value="<%=Test%>">
<input type="hidden" name="OpenEmail" value="<%=OpenEmail%>">
<input type="hidden" name="EMail" value="<%=EMail%>">		
<input type="hidden" name="Verified" value="<%=Verified%>">
<input type="hidden" name="ActionType" value="VERIFY">
<script language="javascript">
{
	document.MailRedirect.submit();
}
</script>
</form>

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
nothing happens when it should move to another page

Expected Results:  
move to page redirect, then to a valid web page in this instance an unsubscribe page

ASP doesn't mattert for us or other Browsers because ASP is scripting on the
server side. and the Browser gets only HTML.
in this case :
<TITLE>E-MAIL REDIRECTION</TITLE>
<form method="POST" action="redirect.asp" name="MailRedirect"> 
<input type="hidden" name="ContactID" value="C6UJ9A0000TX">
<input type="hidden" name="Campaign" value="Q6UJ9A0272NR">
<input type="hidden" name="Zone" value="Q6UJ9A0272T8">
<input type="hidden" name="Test" value="F">
<input type="hidden" name="OpenEmail" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="EMail" value="[e-mail]">..
<input type="hidden" name="Verified" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="ActionType" value="VERIFY">
<script language="javascript">
{
.document.MailRedirect.submit();
}
</script>
</form>

The error from The Mozilla Javascript console is: 
Error: document.MailRedirect has no properties
Source File:
http://slx.configuresoft.com/e1Target/mail_redirect.asp?Test=F&Campaign=Q6UJ9A0272NR&Zone=Q6UJ9A0272T8&UserID=C6UJ9A0000TX&EMail=[e-mail]
Line: 14

I don't know enough about DOM0 to tell you why this fails. I hope someone else can.
