Django destruction in IE7

I have a dJango web form from a model with some error checking (valid email field, etc.). Everything works fine in different browsers Opera, Camino, Netscape, Safari and IE (except IE7).

All I get in IE7 is the message "Internet Explorer does not display a web page." If the forms are valid, the data is written to the database, so I think this is something related to the redirect stage.

I tried various things method = get and javascript, but nothing will stop IE7 from giving me this error.

Any help would be appreciated.

forms.py

class NewElectiveForm(ModelForm): host_country = forms.CharField(widget=forms.widgets.Select(choices=COUNTRIES) , label="Destination") host_type = forms.CharField(widget=forms.widgets.Select(choices=HOST_TYPE) , label="Location type") host_name = forms.CharField(max_length=256, label="Name of host institution") host_street = forms.CharField(required = False, max_length=100, label="Street") host_city = forms.CharField(required = False, max_length=100, label="City") host_district = forms.CharField(required = False, max_length=100, label="District") host_zipcode = forms.CharField(required = False, max_length=100, label="Zipcode") host_supervisor = forms.CharField(required = False, max_length=256, label="Name of supervisor") host_email = forms.EmailField(required = False, max_length=100, label="Email") host_fax = forms.CharField(required = False, max_length=100, label="Fax.No.") host_tel = forms.CharField(required = False, max_length=100, label="Tel.No.") start_date = forms.DateField(widget=SelectDateWidget(),label="Elective start date") end_date = forms.DateField(widget=SelectDateWidget(),label="Elective end date") subject = forms.CharField(required = False, max_length=256,label="Subject") reasons = forms.CharField(required = False, widget=forms.widgets.Textarea(attrs={'class':'question'}), label="Please state briefly the reasons for this choice location and subject") outcomes = forms.CharField(required = False, widget=forms.widgets.Textarea(attrs={'class':'question'}), label="Please give upto to 4 outcomes that you hope to achieve during this elective") your_mobile = forms.CharField(required = False, max_length=100, label="Please provide your mobile number if you are taking it with you") insurance = forms.BooleanField(required = False, label="Please confirm that you have arranged holiday insurance") malpractice = forms.BooleanField(required = False, label="Please confirm that you have medical malpractice cover") groupinfo = forms.CharField(required = False, label="If you planning your Elective in a group, please list your fellow students") #risk_upload = forms.FileField(widget=AdminFileWidget, required = False, label='Upload a completed risk assesment form') #evidence_upload = forms.FileField(widget=AdminFileWidget, required = False, label='Upload an evidence document') class Meta: model = ElectiveRecord exclude = ('id', 'review','elective', 'status', 'edit_userid','modified') 

html template:

 <form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" class="uniForm" id="newform" > {% for i in form %} <div class="fieldwrapper {% for error in i.errors %} error {% endfor %}"> {% for error in i.errors %} <b>{{error|escape}}</b><br/> {% endfor %} {{ i.label_tag }} : {% if i.html_name == "reasons" or i.html_name == "outcomes" %} <br/> {% endif %} {{ i }} {% if i.html_name == "evidence_upload" %} <br/>latest file= xxx {% endif %} {% if i.html_name == "risk_upload" %} <br/>latest file= xxx {% endif %} </div> {%endfor%} <div class="fieldWrapper"> <input type="submit" value="Save" NAME='save' > </div> </form>

Confirm that this is the redirect stage causing the problem by replacing

 HttpResponseRedirect(url) 

from

 HttpResponse('<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><title>title</title></head><body><a href="%(url)s">%(url)s</a></body></html>' % {'url':url}) 

If this does not appear, the problem occurs before the redirect. If it is rendering, then the problem may be a redirect, or it may be a redirected page. Click on the link. If the next page displays correctly, the problem will almost certainly be redirected. Otherwise, the problem is the redirected page.
