And my form doesnt work properly. It completes and submits fine but no emails are getting sent and it doesnt refresh back to home page as it should because it adds the page twice rather then the original code.

So this

Response.AddHeader ("Refresh","5;URL=index.aspx")

becomes

/index.aspx, 5;URL=index.aspx

It isn't changing the source code, you are comparing the original source code of the page to the html that is sent to the browser.

Thanks for your response.

I just find it strange that I dont remember seeing this much code before and my code has always work and all of a sudden it doesnt work.

And nothing has changed with the server environment.

do you understand how html engines work? this is, after all, what webforms is; an html view engine.

when you say "it always worked" do you mean locally on development, or on the production server? if you mean locally, then yes it makes sense that it wouldn't work once deployed. local development vs the production server are drastically different environments and there are many bugs that could show up in production because they were not accounted for in development.

if you mean it always worked on the server then you need to figure out what changed.
1. application configuration
2. application code
3. IIS server configuration
4. email server configuration

if you have a logging in place review the logs to see what is happening. If not I would recommend putting logging in place so you can log the health of your application.
