Just realized this really belongs here:

Thread (from another forum)

Look forward to hearing what the pros have to say!

This bug has been around for quite some time & has been reported before. Not sure where the original posts went --- here is the information that I can share with you & the devs..

If I click the Register To Post link & go through the process of registering a new account I get the error message that you are talking about however if I login via the Login block I get redirected to the appropriate place.

Are you by any chance using Windows or IIS?

Nope not using Windows or IIS. Almost certain server is Linux, client is any computer.

I can pinpoint the problem:

a) The "&" that is sent around after a url for URLs such as this message

b) Are sent in the xoops_redirect arguement of the user.php page

c) (I think) are converted to & amp; on user.php form (hidden field)

d) are sent into checkuser.php... and at that point I think something goes wrong.

So, that's all I know. I wish I knew php like I know java, 'cause it doesn't seem like the most difficult problem to solve.

Thanks,
Keith
