Error if page is left over night?

Ideas?

Ok, I'm thinking that,perhaps, the session ends but the xml document
stays alive for as long as the browser is open. If the session expires,
I have it set to refresh to the home page. Unfortunately, that doesn't
seem to matter with this new issue. However, if the session expires,
could it be that the xml "session" is no longer in sink with the
session? I just don't know enough about how the server holds a temporary
xml document.

Any ideas / solutions welcome. Thanks.

I left the page open over lunch and without changing anything, I hit
refresh and suddenly, it's now operational. Anyone know what might cause
it to hiccup like this?

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01a8'

Object required: 'objCurrNode'

/breadcrumb.inc, line 44

It's still giving me the error above. Line 44 is

set objCurrNode = objCurrNode.firstChild

So, it appears that the "dynamic" xml is being dumped or emptied and no
longer has a node so it throws an error. How would I redirect if I get
an xml error?

Thanks

Thanks, I'll see if that works. I eventually figured that this was the
problem but checking the session and redirecting right from the top
didn't occur to me. I was thinking I had to intercept it where the error
was located, which I am sure is also possible but this is simpler. Just
sitting back here waiting for my session to expire.

By "newsreader" what do you mean? I've used email "newsreaders" for
about 8 years, not the forum but I just wanted to make sure yours and my
terminology were the same. I always view it "expanded" so it didn't
occur to me that this was an issue. Thanks again for the help.

One thing you need to learn about these forums is that most of the people
who answer them use Newsreaders, and ony skim the headers. The second that
you replied to your own posts you made it look like someone had already
answered the question.

Anyway the issue is that you have a piece in the breadcrum code like this

strXMLCrumb = session("breadcrumbXML")

A session only lasts for a maximum of 20 minutes if there is no activity so
this line will fail if you leave the browser open overnight. What you need
to do is wrap this line in an if statement something like this

if session('breadcrumbXML") = Null then
reponse.redirect("Home.asp")
end if

Does CS3 Dreamweaver have something built in that creates a good
breadcrumb system? Spry?
