Re: Controls inside EditTemplate cause editing to end

I am running Windows XP Pro (and I do know how to use IIS on it), however, I
cannot set the project up on it for multiple reasons. First, the project
uses an Oracle DB which I do not have. Second, because it is a group project
as part of a temp job (it is not a personal site), it needs to be running on
the company's server and be available to my partner in the job (we are
students who got hired to continue a class project from the Spring 2005
semester). I have been looking really closely at my code, but because this
is my first time doing inline editing I am trying to get a little bit of
help from someone who has done it before.
