So here is an interesting puzzle…

I have an ASP page that increments a sequence number (by updating a value in a text file) and returns the result in a form field.  The code works except for a major problem – the sequence number is being incremented twice.  So I’m seeing a sequence number of 1,3, 5, etc.

The code is correct because if I remove the
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.fdf"
then I can see the raw FDF and it increments correctly. So it somehow seems as if the ASP routine is being called twice if Acrobat is in the picture.  FDF toolkit is not in the picture because I am generating my own FDF from scratch (and it is correct because the form, with the form field data, is being brought up).

What is even more interesting is that Mozilla 1.6 works correctly and the sequence number increments the way it should.

The ASP page is being invoked by directly calling it directly (i.e.  http://localhost/TestSeqnum.asp) in the html.  Environment is Windows XP Pro SP1 and Acrobat 6.0.1.

Any ideas?
