APPLIES TO

SYMPTOMS

Sometimes when browsing in Internet Explorer 3.x a page, which contains a server-side Grid DTC, the Grid DTC will not be rendered, and IE3 will appear to be stuck loading the page indefinitely.

CAUSE

This issue is caused by a bug in Internet Explorer 3.x.

RESOLUTION

Manually refreshing the page in Internet Explorer 3.x one or more times will usually cause the page to render successfully.

You may also be able to work around the problem by converting the Grid DTC to text and changing its script.
  1. Open the page that uses the Grid DTC into Source view.
  2. Right-click the Grid DTC and select "Convert to Run-time Text."
  3. Replace each <!--#INCLUDE FILE="..."--> comment that appears with the actual content of the file being included.
  4. Save the page, and browse it in Internet Explorer 3.x.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this bug and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

  1. Create an ASP page in a Web project with data connection.
  2. Add a Recordset DTC to the page.
  3. Add a Grid DTC to the page.
  4. Use the Data tab of the GridDTC Properties page to associate the GridDTC with the RecordsetDTC.
  5. Save the page, then browse it in Internet Explorer 3.x.
If you have installed the Gallery Sample application that ships with Visual InterDev, you can also reproduce this behavior by running the Shopping Cart example and clicking the Search button.
