We found some (HTTP/1.0) proxies don't let through 'extension' methods like OPTIONS, let alone MKCOL, DELETE etc. Maybe IE is trying an OPTIONS and the proxy blocks it from getting to the server, so it falls back on GET/POST? joe -- Joe Orton joe@orton.demon.co.uk ... jeo101@york.ac.uk http://www.orton.demon.co.uk/
