I have a shopping cart that is now breaking, despite working without a hitch for many years.
The behavior happens only when using the FireFox browser. Does not happen on Chrome, Edge, Android, etc.
I am seeing this behavior from any customer visiting the cart using FireFox.
Every ASP page loads twice. A customer puts quantity 1 in their cart, they are presented with an order of 2.
I have traced execution, and every ASP page loops thru twice.
After significant debugging, I have the problem stripped down to the simplest form.
ASP page consisting of nothing but VBScript which writes a record to a SQL database.
Every write happens twice.
Debugger shows 2 GETs -- the ASP page and Favicon.ico
Tried to nullify favicon, but the problems remained
Below is the stripped down code. Fairly basic. Creates 1 record in the SQL database under other browsers, creates 2 records under FireFox.
Any assistance would be most appreciated.
