[squid-users] POST method problem

Hello all,

I have a problem with the post method in squid.

Problem:
        when submitting the form below, the input parameters are not
sent with the post method (or they are sent incomplete or corrupt),
        and the clients are redirected to the site's default page.

Settings:
        we have two instances of squid running.
        "squid1" is used by the clients as a proxy in their browsers
        "squid1" forwards the requests to its parent proxy "squid2"
        We are using squid-2.4STABLE-2
        the http server is using IIS 4

"squid2(the parent proxy)" doesn't get any post requests. But when I
killed "squid2", everything worked fine.
That means when using a single proxy, the post method works fine. But
when cascading proxies, it doesn't.

Is it a bug in squid, or missing configuration, or some problem in the
code?
How can I fix it or work around it?

The form text is:
