BACKGROUND
----------
I have an ASP.NET application having two panels. In one panel, an XML
document, transformed using xsl, is displayed. In the other panel are some
controls that allow a user to change the xml. For example, each "l_item"
element appears as a row in a table labelled with a "label"; so if I have
<l_item id="1">
<label>blah</label>
...
</l_item>
it appears on the web page as
-------------
BLAH:
...
-------------
In the other panel there is a textbox control, where the user can type a new
label and click a button, causing the xml document to change and thus the
display to change.
If a "l_item" has been changed from the original xml, I want the attribute
for that item to change. Using the above example if the user changed the
label to "blahblah" I want the xml to look like this:
<l_item id="-1">
<label>blahblah </label>
...
</l_item>
(When the user is finished, the document is sent to a database procedure
that only bothers to update records where the id is a negative number.)
CODING
------
Without going into too much detail, I have methods that change the xml
document in response to the control values and a XmlNodeChangedE ventHandler
that changes the "l_item".
...//global variables
Protected selected As String
Protected selectednode As XmlNode
...
(In Page_Load)
...
A selected = Request.Form("s electedrow")
B selectednode =
xmlegend.Docume ntElement.Selec tSingleNode("//l_item/label='" & selected &
"']")
...
(In the label text box method)
...
C If selectednode Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Try
D selectednode.It em("label").Inn erText = label_txt.Text
Catch ex As Exception
E emessage = ex.Message
...
(In the node change handler)
If (args.Action = XmlNodeChangedA ction.Change And args.Node.Local Name
<> "id") Then
F coi = selectednode.At tributes.Item(0 ).InnerText
If Not (coi.StartsWith ("-")) Then
selectednode.At tributes.Item(0 ).InnerText = "-" & coi
End If
End If
PROBLEM
-------
Line F throws a "Object reference not set to an instance of an object"
exception. When debugging using VS, the debugger shows that when the page
reloads after changing the label text box, "selected" is set to the correct
value at line A and that "selectedno de" becomes a valid XMLElement at line B.
At lines C and D, the debugger shows these values are still there. Flow
branches to the node change handler, coming to line F as it should. But the
debugger shows that at line F both "selected" and "selectedno de" are
"Nothing". Flow goes back to the exception handler, line E, which shows
"selected" and "selectedno de" are the same legitimate values they were before.
So somehow, the node change handler doesn't see the global variable values.
How can I get this to work?

Below you find a small test page.
I contains an input box, with an onBlur event, and a form, with an
onSubmit event.
When I place the cursor in the text box and push ENTER, first the
onBlur event and then the onSubmit event is raised.
The onBlur event displays the value of the global variable , it
changes the value of the global variable to and displays it
again .
The onSubmit event simply displays the value of the global variable

I know the smtp servers I've tried work. I even added a App_Start
