Server.transfer

Are there any known/common problems with using server.transfer("whatever.aspx")? It's always worked fine on my machine but after uploading to the live server today my web application hangs whenever i reach a point where server.transfer occurs.

Any ideas?

I haven't really read up on the difference, but I always use

Response.Redirect

I think i'm using server.transfer because it's needed because i'm using properties on one page that i want to be accesable on the following page.

eg.
VB Code:
```
Public ReadOnly Property CorrectPage() As Boolean
        Get
            Return ChoicesEntered()
        End Get
    End Property
```
The reason i'm doing this is because it's the tidiest way i've found of not letting a certain page load if the user hasn't taken the route through the site that i want them to.

Anyone know of any reason why this isn't working now it's not on my localhost?

Bonkers absolutely crazy, after trying nearly a million things to sort this out, someone suggested renaming the page as they couldn't think of anything else, so i made a new page copied all the code(html and codebehind) from the original and it works now!!! what the hell is all that about?
