Hi Mark,

Management Server is simply a content management server that sits on
top of the ASP.NET stack.  As you already know, it can be configured
to execute code, either asp, or ASP.NET.

There are 2 modes of execution.  Preexecution and RDExecution.

Preexecution - run the code and output the result in SmartEdit, Page
Preview and Publish

RDExecution - run the code and output result only in SmartEdit and
Page Preview.  In publish mode, it simply publishes the code as it is
to the web server.

Before I go onto more details.  Is it necessary to have the form
handler to work in Management Server?  If not, I would wrap all that
ASP.NET code in a Publish mode only rendertag, so it is only shown
when it is published.

Any other way to think about it is, Management Server is to manage
content.  The form handler code is content,  not the content returned
by form handler.
