Yes, that would work. The advantage of using UTC for everything is that you don't need to handle switches between Daylight Saving Time and Standard Time - UTC has no Daylight Saving time. It also simplifies your code - all display times require one (and only one) conversion. Compare and contrast to the Italian --> UK case. If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack. --Winston Churchill

thanks very much for taking the time to reply gentlemen, i will be investigating further when i have some more time to spend on this... cheers again!!!

Thanks for ur replies guys.... I managed to find that one "Distance Covered" bug buried deep in the code and got it sorted now but the app is still crashing regularly, i have noticed that the majority of the crashes are happening in the Data Access Layer objects when they try to interact with the db. This is the most common crash i am seeing in Event Viewer. But the prob is this method is run regularly and only crashes sometimes. Event code: 3005 Event message: An unhandled exception has occurred.

Where to start is a tough ambiguous problem. As a wild guess where a good place for "you" to start, I would offer this[^].

yes i need to change it at runtime basically because i need to apply CSS layout to 2 specific user controls but if i change the doctype for every page the entire web app is centered on the page, thanks for your reply ill check out these options Tim

its looking like the project needs to be upgraded to 2005 to have any chance of doing this, thanks for ur replies guys its appreciated Regards Tim

Obviously i know i can use the datagrid to display my results but what i was actually asking was which would be better/easier to create this format a grid or a repeater or some other control but thanks for your reply anyway

It's the request validation that throws the exception. It filters out requests that contain special character combinations. In this case it's probably the < > characters that are stopped. You can turn off the request validation by using ValidateRequest="false" in the @Page directive. --- single minded; short sighted; long gone;

try this: total += (document.getElementById("technicalScore1").value * 1); The multiplication will force it to be an int and not a string. I assume you stop the user from entering non numbers ?

So if you go into IIS and go to the web site you set up. In that directory in iis if you right click on your default.aspx file what happens? Another question is are you missing some files. Like is the bin directory with all the dll's in the site? Ben
