It means that they are still running classic ASP and that she probably doesn't want to see the code embedded in the actual page.

Classic ASP? YIKE. That is unfortunate, and even *I* know that anyone who doesn't yet do .NET is a dinosaur in the industry. (Sorry to any dinosaurs reading this).

D'Arc - I've deleted the comment for the reasons we discussed above. And my wife is amazing and amazingly smart, which is why she has a 4.0 GPA. I regret posting this if it implied otherwise. I meant it more as a joke in terms of my own overblown reaction.

Steve/Helen: I know, that was my first thought too.

If you wanted some *real* drama, try this alternative next time: HOLY CRAP YOU BROKE THE INTERNET!

I am sooo blaming you after my wife beats me for making this comment to her the next time she complains about a web error...
