Why does embed make my page refresh/load twice?

Hi all, I hope someone is able to help me out with a small problem with this
page:
http://www.superhighstreet.com/Georg...nd/index.shtml

I have a small iframe (mid-right) with an embedded audio player.

<embed src="slideshow/streetsound.mp3 "
width="75" height="25"
autostart="true "
loop="true">

Nothing fancy, however with that in there, the page seems to load twice in
IE. It fetches the SSI header, then clears it, then loads the rest of the
page 'behind the scenes', then finally displays it.

If I remove the embed, it loads the page bit by bit and you can start
reading before the rest of the page is done, which is what is desired for
obvious reasons.

Any idea why embed causes this? Works fine in FF etc.

Don't know "why" but it does that here. Also, the "loop" parameter here
does not work on Mozilla-based browsers (SeaMonkey and Firefox). the
..mp3 file plays once and stops. Not sure why.

I have a 10mb ASP file, which will not load in IE 6.0. I get an HTTP 500 error. When I convert the 10mb file to HTML, it loads fine. Is there a limitation on file size? If so, is there a tag I can place at the top of the page to override the size limitation? Thanks.

In the asp.net pages below, Common.vb has an overridable Page_Load sub. In the consuming page, Two.aspx, the Page_Load sub is inherited, but for some reason it (Overrides Sub Page_Load) executes twice. In another "regular" asp.net page that inherits only from its own codebehind page, the page load only executes once as you'd expect. Any ideas why the page_load fires twice in the former example? Thanks,

I have a page that receives a session variable from the default.aspx. On Page load, the code in Page load gets executed twice. So far, no problem. It sets the session variable each time, correctly. However, when I click on a menu item in that page, it then executes the same page load twice, before transferring control (via a response.redirect) to the new page. On the first pass through the page load of the menu page, the session...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
