Response.Redirect Problem

Hi there

I am running the following from a Windows NT 4.0 workstation on IE 6.0

This is my options.asp page's content:

<%@ Language=VBScript %>



<%

dim Redirector

if Session("FullScreen") = True Then
Redirector = "fullscreen.asp"
Session("windowstate") = "Show Tree"
else
Redirector = "main.asp"
Session("windowstate") = "Full Screen"
end if

Response.Redirect Redirector

%>

This is the error I receive when I run it in IE

Response object error 'ASP 0156 : 80004005'

Header Error

/fedpacs/options.asp, line 17

The HTTP headers are already written to the client browser. Any HTTP header modifications must be made before writing page content

How do I solve this?

Thanx! :o)

First line of code (before those include files) needs to be a quick Response.Buffer = True. Put this at the very top of your page, and you'll be OK!!

roqueripper,

Use Response.Buffer = 0 in the top page, exp:

<%@ Language=VBScript %>
<%Response.Buffer = 0%>



<%

dim Redirector

if Session("FullScreen") = True Then
Redirector = "fullscreen.asp"
Session("windowstate") = "Show Tree"
else
Redirector = "main.asp"
Session("windowstate") = "Full Screen"
end if

Response.Redirect Redirector

%>

Try replacing :

Response.Redirect Redirector

With:

Response.Clear
Response.Write "<script>parent.location='./../../" & Redirector & "'</script>")

What are these? If they have ANY HTML code, or any response.write, that's what the problem is. You CANNOT have any output to the page, or generate any HTML output before the redirect.

And I'm betting that those are standard headers -- and HTML. If so, take them out.

Also, this
Response.Redirect Redirector
is referring to your FUNCTION -- that's not what you want. Redirect should take you to another PAGE, a completely different location. NOT run a function on the existing page. Doesn't work that way.

i have seen lots of people have somehting in teh security.asp file that outputs a comment "<-- Authenticated -->" and that will fail.
