Hi Ben J, I'm with Ben T. To set your mind at ease, remove the CRLFs and test.
Cheers, Paul. -----Original Message----- From: Ben Timby [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, 4 September 2002 5:21 AM To: ActiveServerPages Subject: RE: IIS bug with <pre> CRLF</pre> or am I carazy???? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Ben, I am sorry, I just don't buy it. I would imagine that there has to be something else wrong w/ the app other than a bunch of CRLF's in the page. I would wait until you can do some testing before I would point any fingers. I guess stranger stuff has happened, but I would base my conclusion on hard facts, and not speculation.
