Hmm - any particular reason...?
Yes, the one I described in my original post.
Response.Write???? Is this ASP Classic, then...?
If it were ASP classic, I wouldn't keep describing it as ASP.NET in the
subject and text of my posts.
Were you just going to express disbelief, or did you have a comment?
I really have no idea what you're trying to do - once again, please show
your code...
I really think I have addressed this more than you are giving me credit for.
I'm happy to post some specific part of the code if you ask.
Otherwise, here's the page.
