Whenever i load up my asp page by typing in localhost/main.asp rather than loading up the page a 'save target as' box pops up. this only happens if i have taken some data from the database. If there is no connection then the page loads fine.

I would be gratefull for any help.

Hi Andrew,

Make sure you have PWS (win98) or IIS (win2k) running. asp pages need to be interpreted by a web server to run. I personally test all pages on my remote server & skip the whole local testing thing. MX's site manager makes it quick & easy.

I am running win XP and IIS so this is not the problem, but thanks for the suggestion.

It is the problem if you are getting the "Save As" dialog - that means IIS is not parsing the file.

Check your IIS settings - is it actually running? Do you have your files in a directory enabled by IIS?

I've had this happen after changing the default error pages in IIS. If you've changed those settings, try resetting back to the defaults and see if that fixes it. Worked for me...
