A large store chain has a website that all of their suppliers have to log into

guess when you're big you get to set the rules.

Anyway, this website is a secure (https:) site that, when you log into it using
IE on Windows, immediately asks you for your username and password.

But I will be damned if I can get it to work at all under Linux.

Instead of the username/password prompt that comes up under IE, I get this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="882T.xsl"?>
<Interchange  Region="Atlantic">
	<Msg_882_GROUP_1>
		<G47>
			<G47_01_373></G47_01_373>
			<G47_01_613></G47_01_613>
		</G47>

... this series of numbers continues on for several screen lengths, then ends
with

 </Msg_882_GROUP_1> </Interchange>


And that's it.  Game over.

I have tried this with Firefox and Opera, and even got desperate and installed
IE under Wine using the script here: http://sidenet.ddo.jp/winetips/config.html

Every time I get the same thing.

Any idea what's going on here, and how I can get Firefox or something to render
this page?  It is obviously doing something that IE recognizes but Firefox
doesn't understand.




Have you contacted their Web admin or customer support staff? Supply them with links to http://www.w3.org/.

I think there may be a script that is being run that creates the WWW page. I would try IE without Java or scripting enabled and see what happens.

Now you said you used IE under wine.  Did that work?
