I have a page that has been displaying some weird behavior.

I have 2 radio buttons that work fine until I press the link button with an
item selected in my link box (if an item is not selected, there is no
problem).

This makes no sense. I am not doing anything with the item in the listbox.
It just has to be selected.

What happens is that once this starts happening, the radio buttons WILL NOT
stay selected. So the page quits working.

If I don't select either of the items in the listbox, I can press the
Linkbutton all day and the radio buttons will work. But once I select it,
the radio buttons will never work again.

What is wrong here?

Is this a bug in Asp? There is no Database access here, so that is not the
problem.

I can't figure this out nor can anyone I work with.

I have stripped out everything that is not related to the problem.

Anyone have an idea as to what is causing this problem???

I tried to do the exact same thing using vs.net (2003) and it works fine.

What is the difference? The code is straight forward and is doing nothing
in the events - just returning:

Here are the 2 vs.net files:

I rewrote the program in VS 2003 and found that the radio buttons would
work, but now the listbox doesn't work correctly.

I select an item in the listbox and press the link button, which just tells
me which line is selected. It gives me back a -1 (no line selected) and
clears the line. The next time I select a line it works fine. I can select
all the lines I want and each time I hit the link button it sees the line
file.

Only the first time, does it have a problem.

Is there some sort of initialization problem that I am having?

Thanks,

Tom
