Invalid State w/ JS popup window

[none]

Hi,

I'm opening a popup window with JavaScript. It has a command button.

This is from the primary source (opener) window:
################################################## #################
// ================================================== =====
function popup01 ()
{
var win_url
= "http://localhost/Webfolder01/DBCtrl.aspx";
var win_name
= "DBpopup01";
var win_chrome
= "toolbar=0,scrollbars=1,location=1,statusbar=0,men ubar=0,resizable=1";
var win_dimn
= ",width=444,height=444,left = 290,top = 162";

DBname_popup = window.open (win_url, win_name, win_chrome + win_dimn);
if (window.focus) {DBname_popup.focus()}
}
// ================================================== =====
################################################## #################

When I click the command button on the popup window, and upon postback,
I get an HttpException:

[HttpException (0x80004005): The state information is invalid for this page
and might be corrupted.]

... along with:
[FormatException: Invalid character in a Base-64 string.]
Does anyone have any ideas as to what is causing this?
Thanks in advance!
The error page:

Hi,

I tried the suggested remedy, and it had no effect:
################################################## ######################
<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="True" Inherits="dyn_ctrl_page"
enableEventValidation="false" Debug="true" %>

################################################## ######################
Is this problem being caused a bug in ASP.NET 2.0?
