Did you save the file with an<BR>> ".htm" or a ".aspx" extension.
Obviously, the correct answer<BR>> is the latter. If you specified
the file with a .htm<BR>> extension you will see the results that you
describe. Your<BR>> file with a .aspx extension works correctly on my
computer.<BR>><BR>> Larry Woods<BR>><BR>> > -----Original
