Hi,

	We are using the captive portal with the 1.2.1
and it is great! :)

	There are two things we recently detected as
recurrent, specially with Internet Explorer (version IE6
and IE7).

	I already mentioned that we use a slightly
modified portal, we don't really require any login, we
just put the Terms of Use as mandatory, then embed the
user and password as hidden fields.

	One thing is that sometimes, after clicking on
"I accept the terms", the button disappears or a message
of invalid login/pass shows up. This is usually related
with coova-chilli needing a restart (still not sure why).

	The other thing that happens is getting a blank
page, then IE reports it may be offline or with problems.
I couldn't debug as much as I want, we are planning to
take a deeper look into this, but I would like to share
it before, so I could get some ideas and/or feedback. :)

Kind regards,
