-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

Place a Response.write command just before the ProcessNoStateWebClass call in
the .asp file generated by the WebClass Designer. When you navigate to that
site, you see only the Response.write output. You do not see any output from
your WebClass even though the code is running.

CAUSE
=====

The information that the WebClass writes to the Response property is flushed by
the call to Response.write in the .asp file.

RESOLUTION
==========

Do not change the .asp file that is created by the WebClass designer.

STATUS
======

This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Following is a sample .asp file created by the WebClass Designer that has been
modified. Notice the Response.write "Initializing " line of code.

Sample Code
-----------

     <%
     Response.Buffer=True
     Response.Expires=0

     If (VarType(Application("~WC~WebClassManager")) = 0) Then
      Application.Lock
      If (VarType(Application("~WC~WebClassManager")) = 0) Then
       Set Application("~WC~WebClassManager") =
       Server.CreateObject("WebClassRuntime.WebClassManager")
      End If
      Application.UnLock
     End if

     Response.write "Initializing "

     Application("~WC~WebClassManager").ProcessNoStateWebClass "MyApp.xxx", _
       Server, _
       Application, _
       Session, _
       Request, _
       Response
     %>

When you navigate to this site, you see only the Response.write output. You do
not see any output from your WebClass even though the code is running.
