All of a sudden I'm getting it. This is running using VS 2005 in debug
mode using the VS 2005 web server, not IIS.

Found it - there were some scripts DreamWeaver inserted at the end
that appeared to be copies of what the html generated by ASP.NET puts
in there. I think it was due to our html person starting with the
displayed html page rather than the source aspx page.

However, is there a way to get a more specific error when this occurs
other than just carefully scanning the aspx page?

Could it be that your app is trying to decode a URL which contains a plus
(+) character, which will be decoded into a space? Spaces aren't allowed in
URLs...
