thanks for clarifying that for me. i still get confused between what's ASP and what isn't.

In fact, this is the most appropriate place to post since this is where most Dreamweaver users visit.
Maybe I should drop it in chit chat on the off chance that somebody there will have input.

Anyway, I don't think my title: 'Dreamweaver bug?' lured anybody into my posting only to find they'd been duped into reading a question about dreamweaver, not ASP. Do you?

Lighten up. It's a public forum for developers and the question is relevant to the work I'm doing in ASP.

Thanks.
