Button events do not fire *bug*

[Mark Broadbent]

I initially posted a problem in the aspnet.webcontrols and have now found
why the problem existed. Just thought I'd post this to see if this was
perhaps a known issue.

Scenario: I have a simple webform project that was created on one machine
and transported to my work machine. The form has two buttons Edit and Add
which do not cause validation. When either of them are clicked they fire
their respective events and cause textboxes (and the Save and Cancel
buttons) to come into view. The form has RequiredFieldValidators for the
textboxes -which display when the Save button is clicked.

Error: Both machines have the same uplevel browser (ie6). On machine 1
everything works fine. On machine 2, when the Edit or Add buttons are
clicked they do not fire their events (if I set them to causes validation
they do cause the FieldValidators to work ...but still don't fire their
events). I noticed that I can get the events to fire if I set the
FieldValidators to EnableClientScript = false

Points to note here.
1. My code works fine on machine 1 properly
2. Both machines have the same uplevel browser
3. Since both buttons are non validating, they should be uneffected by the
Validator controls anyway.
4. This is really p**s poor and has cost me an entire mornings work.
5. When problems like this occur you start to question the whole question of
programming for uplevel browsers if you can't rely on the code executing
correctly

Has anyone else come across this or similar problems.

Br,

Mark.

I've had a response from Ken Cox (MVP) -this might be the problem (I shall
go thru)....
