Thanks again Tobi.

>>When a resource with mime-type image/svg+xml is recieved (or any
plugin handled resource) IE first realises the mime-type, then makes
a second GET request to the resource which is the data the plugin
actually gets (basically rather than feeding the bytes of the first
request to the resource, it feeds a url which is re-requested by the
plug-in.) This obviously means that the second request loses all the
posted data, therefore your serverside form is sending different
data.
>>The solution I use is to redirect (303) the posted request to a
cached (or any GETable url representing the result of the post.)
version, this has little effect on intelligent agents (ie other than
IE.) and makes IE work. It also means you can have the resulting
document cacheable, and have a unique url if you want.
The first paragraph is very interesting and has helped me to
understand what the problem is. I've a feeling that caching won't
work under this IE - plugin relationship. If the plugin is recieving
the data and not IE - then how can IE cache it? I dont think it
bothers to.
I dont understand the socond paragraph fully enough to know if its
relevant to my problem. Should I email Jim and ask him?
