I notice that a lot of people seem to get corrupted files when uploading.  It's probably because they are uploading via FTP in binary transfer mode.

Since asp files are text files, they can be uploaded in text mode instead of binary mode.  I know that when you upload perl scripts via FTP the first thing they tell you is to transfer it in text mode instead of binary.  That's because transferring them in binary can cause corrupt perl files.

I'm sure its the same with asp files.  For those of you getting currupt files, try uploading in text mode.
