AOL Browser Problem
I have written a membership script in PHP and it is having a problem when a visitor to the site is using the AOL Browser.? There is no problem when the same visitor uses either the Internet Explorer browser or the Firefox browser.
When a visitor using the AOL browser signs up as a member, the visitor’s membership data is entered into the Mysql database.? The AOL browser user ends up at the Login page.? When the AOL browser enters his login data in the login form and clicks the submit button instead of going to the member’s area the AOL browser user finds himself at the index page where he signed up in the first place.
? My programmer says it is a simple redirect that the AOL browser is not allowing or following.? When the same AOL browser user changes to a different browser the login process works the way it is suppose to work.
? I need someone who is familiar with the quarks of the AOL browser to suggest or explain what is most likely happening that is causing the redirect not to function properly just when the visitor is using the AOL browser.
? I have the software installed on several domains and the problem exists for all domains.? So this is not restricted to one domain.? The script is also on several different servers so this is not a server issue.
There is also another redirect that the AOL browser is not handling properly.? This is the redirect when a non member makes a product purchase and after return form PayPal where payment is made the customer lands on a thank you page.? When the customer clicks a button to redirect to the download page the AOL browser user never gets to the download page.
These seem to be identical problems.?
I can supply the login areas of the script for examination if needed.? You will have to let me know.
Best regards,

## Deliverables
I need a suggestion for a fix so the AOL browser user can login and download the products purchased.
