Yes. The web form that is in trouble was acting like it was in a kind-of sort-of edit mode. I could actually drag and resize all of the controls on the page even though I was in run time. I happened to back up the app a few hours before this happened. I had to delete all of the vs.net temp files and *then* reinstall the the app. I recompiled and the horror show was over. Very, very strange.

Thanx
Neil

>Are you running the form in an external browser window? It sounds like ASP.NET thinks that it is rendering the web page for use in the Designer rather than for the browser. I don't know what precisely is causing this problem, but you may be better off creating a new web form and copying the controls and code-behind to it.

>>I was setting properties on a web form and screwed something up. Now when I run the form none of hyperlinks are active and I have a textbox with many characters being displayed. A texbox that I did not place on the form. The character sequence in the textbox looks like the viewstate that you see when you view source of an aspx page. The textbox is sizable during runtime. What is happening on this form?
