Can anyone help me out with this one. I have a basic aspx page with an image placeholder on it. I want to be able to click a button on the page and have a dialog window appear where  I can navigate the Client's PC and select a file (a JPG of GIF). I then want to change the image ...

with the framework i can getbytes from utf8 and others using
asciiencoding.getbytes
what method or class do i use the getbytes from an ansi character file

The same application is running fine on 3 other windows 2003 servers but not

Visual Studio.NET 2003 came with Framework 1.1 on the installation
CD.  There is a "hotfix" out for Framework 1.1 .  If this hotfix is installed,
would it interfere with Visual Studio or the running of apps built with
Framework 1.1 that didn't have the hotfix?

Beta 2.0 is ??
