Images Missing when loading ASP page

Ed

I first noticed this in my own app. Images would show up missing [red X]
randomly on IE 6.0.2800.1106 on Windows 2000 server.

I then was able to repro this problem on Microsoft's website!!! The page I
used was
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/...p1/default.asp
After pressing [F5] to refresh the page six times, I noticed missing images
on the page.

This problem seems to be very reproducible. I coded a sample ASP page which
references the same images 10 times on the same page. Loaded in IE. Upon
pressing [F5] several times, the images will be identified as missing [red
X]. Refresh the page again, it's fine.....etc.

I'm up-todate with all latest MS patches. Has anyone else seen this
problem?

Is this an ASP problem or is it an IE6 bug?

I'd be willing to bet it's an IE issue, not an IIS issue. Try loading the
page in another browser, if you have another one installed. I think that of
all the times I've been to Microsoft's site, I've only seen the red X like
once or maybe twice.

i have seen that. All i could gather was that IIS was doing too many <%%>.

Try doing just one image and see what happens

UPDATE!

I found out that if the ASP page contains <SCRIPT>, images that are
references multiple times on the same page would become red X upon pressing
[F5] (refresh) for several times. If I were to remove the <SCRIPT> from the
ASP, the red X problem went away.

Looks like a caching bug in IE 6...

(I'm cross-posting this to the IE6 group and see what the experts think.)

The problem was you were mixing apples and oranges.

<SCRIPT> is for client side-script and runs in the browser, which is
not ASP.
ASP is server-side and runs on the server, and uses "<% %>" as
delimiters.

When you removed the <SCRIPT> tags it worked like it should, before
that it wouldn't have.

return "This is ASP"
}
</SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT language="vbscript" runat="server">
With Response
.Write f1()
.Write "<BR/>"

Obviously that runs server-side when you add the "runat=" parameter,
but he never indicated he used it that way and I'm not going to assmue
he did that unless he says so. If he actually "showed the code" as we
always ask people to do, then we would already have known what way he
did it.
