Serious issues with webcontrols...

N

Nicolas LeBlanc

Hi,

First of all, sorry for cross-posting, but some groups look more active than
others, and I sure need to find an answer to this.

I recently rebuilt my website using ASP.NET and I did my forum system using
a datagrid and template columns. I was asked by many users to remove the
LinkButton in order to be able to "open in a new window", so instead I used
the hyperlink control to allow users to access the message page from the
topic list page.

But for some reason, and don't ask me why, some users don't see the
hyperlinks at ALL!

One user mailed me, and the HTML generated by IIS for him, the code:

<a id="dgList__ctl8_hlThreadName"

Is replaced by:

<!--d="dgList__ctl8_hlThreadName"

You see? HTML comment! I have no idea why it does that!!! And that is under
Windows 98 using IE (don't know which version, but he said "old")

Another use, I'm using HyperLink controls with an image, and they simply
don't see the image at all.. is there a problem with the HyperLink control?

This is not counting the multiple viewstate problem I'm having.. I love
programming in .NET, but there are serious issues when it comes to
multi-platform.. should I be surprised that the WIDTH/HEIGHT tags of an
imagebutton control are lost when a user uses Netscape?

If some people want to see them live to see what's wrong, then...

This is the technical support forum, most issues are posted there.. and I
receive all errors by email, so I can tell there are not many in the forum
system, I do however receive corrupted viewstate errors from time to time...

Try adjusting the target browser. You've got the browser schema set to IE 5
or above. Try setting it for a more neutral HTML 3.2 compliant browser.

Hope this helps,
