There is no such method available on MyBase from within my method. BTW, I
am inheriting from System.Web.UI.Page.
Plus I would not want to run MyBase's method of saving persistence, as the
way it does save (in hidden fields) causes errors on handhelds (which of
course is why I'm overriding the method).
Thanks, though...
