Page load fires twice on Firefox
asp.net, firefox
Solution
I've seen Page_Load fire twice if you have an `<asp:Image>` or an `<img runat="server">` on the page that doesn't have its `src` attribute specified.
Could be worth a look.
Problem
OK, first some background: I have a page showing the number of hits(or views) of any selected item. The hit counter procedure that is called at every page load i.e ``` if (Request.QueryString.HasKeys()) { // get item id from icoming url e.g details.aspx?itemid=26 string itemid = Request.Params["itemid"]; if (!Page.IsPostBack) { countHit(itemid); } } ``` The problem: my expectation was that the counter would be increased by 1 on every page load but the counters on my datalist and formview are always behind and stepped by 2 i.e instead of `1, 2, 3, 4`, it's `0, 2 , 4, 6`. It seems that the page load is firing twice. Later I discovered that this only happens when you are using Mozilla Firefox. The page behaves fine with other browsers like IE This becoming quite frustrating.
