<tip type="ASP" author="Ian Anderson">

If you're self taught on ASP like me, you may not be aware of 
Server.Transfer

There are certain occasions where instead of Response.Redirect, you 
might want to use this alternative method.

1. faster - eliminates a HTTP round trip
2. preserves the original URL in the address bar
3. Can automatically send form values as well

It's all too clever for words, and all described in loving detail here:

Wish I'd known about it before...

Cheers

Ian
