Hi, ok so I have seen a lot of forums with this error and can't seem to find one that has a solution to it. Anyhow I came up with a simple example of a site that would trigger this error.

There error itself is: The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:

The site where you can find this is error
(if this goes straight to the error open the page in IE)
here is the code I used.

PHP Code:


			
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<head>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />

<title>error</title>

<script type="text/JavaScript">

<!--

function MM_jumpMenu(targ,selObj,restore){ //v3.0

  eval(targ+".location='"+selObj.options[selObj.selectedIndex].value+"'");

  if (restore) selObj.selectedIndex=0;

}

//-->

</script>

</head>



<body>

This is a simple example of the

<h1>CGI Error</h1>

<p>The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers.  The headers it did return are:</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p><?php

    $thecat=$_GET['cat'];

    if($thecat == ""){$thecat = 'Select Category';}



?>

<form name="form1" id="form1">

  <select name="menu1" onchange="MM_jumpMenu('parent',this,0)">

    <option value="/error.php?cat=One">One</option>

    <option value="/error.php?cat=Two">Two</option>

    <option selected="selected"><?php echo $thecat ?></option>

  </select>

</form>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

</body>

</html>

I believe this has something to do with getting the value from the URL. Anyone know how to fix this problem?

I'm not really sure how this replicates the error. It always displays the error message because it is statically coded into the html. Unless I'm missing something?

I just did a quick google on the error message and it seems like a bug. Have a look here, this may be of help.
