Wouldnt life be easier if we could build up the output of a page in one string, then just output that to the browser.
It would allow us to do some nifty replacements for xhtml compatibility, and other things before sending that string off to the browser.
Oh well.... I may just dive in and do this. |

I seem to recall someone attempting something like this before; don't remember the exact details but I'll try searching around, see what I can come up with.
I suppose one way to do it would be to create a new variable in config.asp - strPageOutput, for example - then go through each file and replace response.write with strPageOutput=strPageOutput&. You could then run your replacements, etc. at the end of inc_footer.asp before a reponse.write of strPageOutput. Sure there would be some minor performance issues doing it that way, but it's a start.

Couldn't turn up that previous post using search. I think the guy who was trying to do it was doing so so he could apply a template before sending the HTML to the client, if that helps anyone else to unearth it.

i certainly would not do strPageOutput=strPageOutput&blah.
that method of string concaternation is VERY VERY slow! |

| Larger pages would suffer since you're not flushing as you go. Currently, you can DL as the server process farther down the page. To buffer and send would make the entire process wait. |

 Really? I figured there's be a performance hit, but not that bad. Guess that's my something new learned for today
