The great resource BrowserShots tells me that there's a rendering problem with these pages in IE 6 (that last one is a link to the screenshots, but I'm not sure how long they'll stay). Sigh.

I feel much more comfortable now with asp.net inheritance and CS's implementation of it. One most helpful step was to modify Web.config (after saving a good copy, of course) to make it generate more complete error messages. The process of doing that is explained in the brief error message that was appearing before...
