Another FSO hang problem opening text files

[bgreenhouse]

Hi

I'm trying to do a small scale templating thing where I just pull the content text out of a text file, and insert it into the template. The server just hangs - no error messages, no response when I try to do it with the following code:

Set objFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
ContentFile = Server.MapPath ("home_page.txt")
if objFSO.FileExists(ContentFile) then
	Set objbody_text = objFSO.OpenTextFile(ContentFile, 1,1)
	Response.write ("ContentFile")
else
	Response.write("nope")
End if

It just hangs - ANy suggestions?

Does it hang with a blank screen and no error msg? I have had this before but if you do a View Source you can extract the error message from that. Tony

Thanks Tony

It just hangs without any error message. I figured it out though, so if anyone is having the same problem...I saw on another list that people were having that problem when using Norton Systemworks. I had Norton Antivirus, so I shut down the script blocking option (which I think is enabled by default), and it worked like a charm. So if you have any Norton utilities running and are getting a similar problem, try shutting them down.
