I have html <form method="post" action="cgi-bin/order.cgi"> where inputs are <input autocomplete="off" type="text" size="1" maxlength="2" name="MI-527" value="">.
cgi script is perl. Random orders come in with unspecified inputs and all are very high quantities. I wrote this off as a chrome problem, but need to fix regardless. Thanks,

The W3C validator reports several HTML problems that may or may not contribute: https://validator.w3.org/check?uri=https%3A...ine&group=0

It's strange that it only happens occasionally. unsure.gif

I'm sorry that I didn't do the validation of the html; I thought that I was perfect -wink.gif

Corrected most errors and cut out a lot of the commented out sections. Still don't understand why autocomplete and hspace are flagged.

Unfortunately, I cannot test this due to the random nature of the problem.

Thanks to all.
