I just noticed this today after getting the bug report. As Saghalie said, you need to click the "Submit" button. IE somehow doesn't send the "Submit" button variable when you only hit the enter key. However, the fix is pretty simple. Edit your includes/view-functions.php file, search around line 1578 - 1582 and you'll find this code: <pre><code><li class="buttons"> <input type="hidden" name="form_id" value="{$form->id}" /> {$edit_markup} <input id="saveForm" class="button_text" type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" /> </li></code></pre> <code></code> After the second line of the above code, insert the hidden submit code, so it become: <pre><code><li class="buttons"> <input type="hidden" name="form_id" value="{$form->id}" /> <input type="hidden" name="submit" value="1" /> {$edit_markup} <input id="saveForm" class="button_text" type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" /> </li></code></pre> <code></code> That should fix the issue with IE.

I've done this SO many times it ain't funny anymore. Hope this helps.

And when I click on 'view form' I am presented with a new page requesting a password (great so far). When I enter the same password that I chose earlier, the screen blanks the password out and asks for it again... Am I missing something? Do I have to go into phpmyadmin and create a user / password database or something? Thanks
