What is it you're trying to do Zarcom? I'm just wondering if there isn't a better way to get text to magically appear where you want it without using response.write
(i.e. using a label, or a validation control, depending on what the situation is)

There is a couple places I use it.
1. as validation messages
ie.
Please fill in required field.
Please fill in other required field.
In this way I can put as many or few messages one under the other. The thing is in some browsers if the text is written above the <html> tag including everything else the style sheets written for the page don't work.
2. a dynamic list of links taken from a database
ie
link1
link2
etc
Do you know of another method to accomplish this?
Thanks for the help

Hey Zarcom,
There is actually a validator summary control that will display any validation messages in teh same way you want it to look, but you can put it wherever on the page.
For the buttons, you could create a panel on your page, and dynamically fill it with the links. That way, you specify where the panel is, and you dont have to worry about it overwriting other controls.

Really? Hmmm...thats weird, since all the validators do is write javascript back to the browser, and I'm sure Netscape should support javascript.
Our clients only use IE, so we've never had to test with Netscape, so I really don't have an answer for you.
One thing you could try is just seeing what the javascript that is written by the controls looks like, and just copy that directly into the html view of your page (assuming that the version of javasript asp.net creates is compatible).
If I find anything else on this, I'll let you know.

ps: thanks for the star! Glad I could help.
