>If you issue a Response.End() in your button_click event it will stop the code processing dead in it's tracks. The HTML page will not be rendered in this case. Good way to send something to the browser and then stop any further processing. I don't think the MIME type would be a problem, the browser should see the XML header tag and know whats comming. If it is then you can try clearing the Response buffer and/or headers with Response.Clear, Response.ClearHeaders to see if that helps.

Great gobs of XML batman! That response.end() did the trick.

Thanks... now on to pulling the XML with the XMLDataReader and displaying it with that 'human' touch.

BTW: Will I ever remember to put those damn semis after every line. UG!
