Heap corruption! Apparently there is a flag called HeapEnableTerminationOnCorruption that was not previously enabled by default. As a new feature in Windows Vista, the IIS worker process terminates when the heap corruption is detected. So, it only APPEARED to be working in our stand-alone apps and on our 32-bit Windows XP machines, when in actuality it was simply ignoring the error.
To fix the problem we changed our code for calling into the Delphi libraries to use IntPtrs and pass data back using out parameters. For example:
public string CallDLL(string sTest)
{
string s = "";
IntPtr p1 = Marshal.StringToHGlobalAnsi(sTest);
s = Marshal.PtrToStringAnsi(p1);
if (p1 != IntPtr.Zero)
{
Class1.TestDLL(out p1);
s = Marshal.PtrToStringAnsi(p1);
}
Marshal.FreeCoTaskMem(p1);
return s;
}
Hope this helps anyone with the same issue.

Hi All,
I have create a web page in my local host.
The web page has a Iframe which only able to work on my computer when i type "http://localhost/"
to view it on my own computer.
When im using my Colleague computer and type my computer's IP Address which is connected to the same local area network.
The whole Web page expect the Iframe part works.
The code for the Iframe is
<iframe src ="http://localhost/cgi-bin/6_nodeid.cgi" width="28" height="40" scrolling="No">
<p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p>
</iframe>
But if i type just "http://localhost/cgi-bin/6_nodeid.cgi"
( where the 'localhost' is replaced by my computer's ID ADD)
in my colleague's computer, it works.
Any possible solutions?

The line
<iframe src ="http://localhost/cgi-bin/6_nodeid.cgi" width="28" height="40" scrolling="No">
gets processed on the client computer, not the server. So when you run it on your computer, it points
to something on your machine. When you run it on your colleague's machine, it points to a resource on
their computer.
The way around this is to have the server set the "http://localhost/" part of the address at the time
the page is served, or to hard-code the ip of your machine (which will work fine for local, intranet pages)
What you've been doing manually (replacing the address) is something you need to do automatically.
(you can check the ip of the client and do nothing if its 127.0.0.1 or set it to the IP address of the
server if the client request originates from a machine other than the server) Without knowing your
requirements etc, I can't see any reason not to make the server automatically insert it's own IP regardless
of who the client is. This way the software will be portable between machines without needing to change
the hard-coded IP address each time.

As you see, go to HOME, CONTACT US or SITEPLANS and there is a consistancy, but go to GALLERY and there is a gap at the top.
I can't see why, can anybody help?

You are going to kick yourself and I might hear your scream all the way from sunny Norfolk ...
In your gallery page your code includes
</style>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/image-slideshow.css" type="text/css"/>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/image-slideshow.js">
</script>
and
<body background="images/headerimage.png">
That body tag background you are calling that image twice, in the body and the div below, which isn't in your other pages.
This webpage calls your stylesheet ...
body{
background-image:url('../../images/heading3.gif');
background-repeat:no-repeat;
padding-top:80px;
}
That stylesheet isn't called by the other pages consequently you have this 80px padding at the top where your body tag is. the image (../../images/heading3.gif) can't be found.
You haven't yet fixed your security problem

Can you hear me?
What a doofus, have corrected by removing the CSS background image url.
All is good.
I looked at it for ages, and it just didn't occur to me that it was double calling the background.
Anyway, now that I have stopped screaming, I shall start the kicking.
As for security issue, I have been far too busy to even take a look at it.

Duplicate code helps nobody. Move your CSS styles to an external style sheet. For a small website like yours, version control (such as http://www.tortoisesvn.net/[^]) might be overkill. So as stated next door, delete your old code rather than commenting it out. If you must retain your old code, name the file accordingly (such as .bak or .old) so you know it is no longer valid and no longer used.
Dave, don't wait for disaster, secure your website before it becomes compromised, especially if you intend a future server-side code and database functionality.

I second that notion.
When it comes to using CSS over multiple pages, there are many good practices to keeping things neat and tidy.
For example, external linking, I use a master.css file for the entire site, with global stuff; then I make proprietary CSS files for pages that might need some of their own special code (IE, a gallery, or contact-form maybe).
Version Controlling on websites is normally only necessary when you are dealing with a site that is being worked on by a bunch of clients, though it is a good practice to become accustomed to for future knowledge.
Also, I'd recommend trying to use reset.css often. It helps with a lot of bugs that can make you lose time, I know it saves me lots of time when it comes to doing cross-browser comparison. However inserting reset.css into a site that has been built without it can harm it in some cases, which is why it is better to have it linked at the beginning of your project.
you can get reset.css here:

Reset.css I didn't mention that particularly, although I use it myself. I didn't wish to overload Dave with too much stuff all at once.
And with IE8 and earlier not playing nicely with regards to standards, the need for code to force some degree of compliance.

BTW could you recheck to see if I have hidden the subdirectories correctly.
(I am not an expert on these matters).
TIA

OK. I will do that shortly and report back. I have a potentially waste-of-time meeting to attend. If need be I will e-mail you via the CP link.

They are invalid under the DIV tag, but can be set as a Style in CSS.
