SYMPTOMS
By default, the Display method of a Visual InterDev 6.0 Script Object will generate its HTML text representation and Response.Write the text. This returns the text to the browser that invoked the ASP.
There are high-end scenarios where it might be useful to use a Script Object as a component for generating some HTML text. In this scenario, you can pass a TRUE parameter to the Display method of a Script Object and it returns its generated text to the caller. The caller can then merge it in with other HTML and subsequently Response.Write it out to the browser, store it in a variable, or store it in a file for later use.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a bug in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
This bug was corrected in Visual Studio 6.0 Service Pack 3.
