[ale] Interesting Issue with IE Apache and SSL

[Robert Coggins]

OK all,

I have an interesting delima.  I am trying to run a website on a host
using RedHat 7.3 with apache. I (and customers) kept running into an
issue where I would get random page not found errors.  However,  I found
this would only happen with Internet Explorer.  I code on linux using
Mozilla as my test browser so I never noticed it until people brought it
to my attn.  I could not for the life of me figure out why this only
happened in IE only.  I started recoding the whole site thinking it was
a gliche in my code.

Now, tonight I thought I would retest some of my new code on IE.  Sure
enough I would get that error every now and then.  However tonight I
have the sound turned up on my windows box.  I noticed this only happens
when I try to click on a link I hear an odd, very rapid, clicking
sounds.  Faster than I can possibly click the mouse.  I figure this is
messing up the process of sending and receiving acks from the server.  I
know this is at least a part screw up in IE sending the rapid clicks
like that.  But is there a way to not accept but one of these clicks on
the server side to keep from getting the page not found error? Or maybe
in my code "trap" more than one click request?

One other thing.  I am not 100% sure yet.  But I think this might only
happen when I am using SSL on https://.

Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks!
Rob
