I am a web designer and all of a sudden, at the top of some of my pages appears the following text:

Content-Length: 678


What is doing this? The only dumb questions are the ones that are never asked
 
Sure, it is pretty straight forward stuff, though:

!-- **************************** -->
<!-- login screen shown initially -->
<!-- **************************** -->
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Login Page</TITLE>
<script language=&quot;javascript&quot;>
function selectField(loginform, email1){
// Set the focus using the select method
document.loginform.email1.focus();
}
</script>
</HEAD>

<BODY topmargin=&quot;0&quot; onload=&quot;selectField()&quot;>
<cfoutput><form name=&quot;loginform&quot; action=&quot;index.cfm&quot; method=&quot;post&quot;> </cfoutput>
<table align=&quot;center&quot; border=&quot;0&quot;>
<TR>
<TD align=&quot;center&quot;>
Logon:<br><input type=&quot;text&quot; name=&quot;email1&quot; value=&quot;&quot; tabindex=&quot;1&quot;><BR>
Password:<BR><input type=&quot;password&quot; name=&quot;password&quot; tabindex=&quot;2&quot;></TD>
</TR>
<tr>
<td height=&quot;20&quot;></td>
</tr>
<TR align=&quot;center&quot;>
<TD colspan=&quot;2&quot;><input type=&quot;submit&quot; value=&quot;Enter&quot;>
<input align=&quot;right&quot; type=&quot;button&quot;value=&quot;Cancel&quot;onclick=&quot;javascript:self.close()&quot;>
<input type=&quot;reset&quot; value=&quot;Reset&quot;></TD>
</TR>
</form>
</table>

</BODY>
</HTML> The only dumb questions are the ones that are never asked
 
Yes, I am using Windows ME and I tried on a Windows 98 & XP and saw the same thing. I did have to hit the &quot;go&quot; button a couple of times to reload the page. The only dumb questions are the ones that are never asked
 
well, I went, I saw and then I saw nothing [lol] that is to what you are seeing. It really sounds like some sort of browser setting though. never encountered of heard of this however so I'm at a loss. A language that doesn't affect the way you think about programming is not worth knowing.

Thanks for all your input. I did remove the <cfoutput> tags from around the form, still had same problem. Since I have the problem on all systems within my network (3 listed above), I must look at my proxy server and firewall for problems/answers.

Thanks again.... The only dumb questions are the ones that are never asked
