UAG's customizability is fantastic, and quite rare in our industry, but it can also lead to a lot of heartache. Editing ASP and HTML code takes a certain amount of expertise, and troubleshooting code issues is something that huge books have been written about, so there's little we can help with there. However, one common source of trouble is the misunderstanding of the fundamentals of the CustomUpdate
