Workaround for Bug in ASP.NET Version 1.1
Changes in ASP.NET version 1.1 can generate a postback script with a bug in it. It is particularly a problem for anyone using many of the page template solutions. I posted both C# and VB workarounds on the ASP.NET forums, and here's the C# code:
using System.IO;
using System.Text;protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter writer) {
StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder();
StringWriter stringWriter = new StringWriter(stringBuilder);
HtmlTextWriter htmlWriter = new HtmlTextWriter(stringWriter);
base.Render(htmlWriter);
string html = stringBuilder.ToString();int start = html.IndexOf("<form name=\"") + 12;
int end = html.IndexOf("\"", start);
string formID = html.Substring(start, end - start);
string replace = formID.Replace(":", "_");
html = html.Replace("document." + formID, "document." + replace);
writer.Write(html);
}
Note: This is a bug in the official release of 1.1, and it was tested with it too. I'm not referring to a beta.
Update: Quickfix now available as of 4/29/2003.
