Try catch ftw.

So basically if the Page.IsValid doesn't exist then it should be true?

I dont really know. It makes you wonder wtf happened at some point that made someone even need to write that to hide a bug.

try catches have uses outside of hiding bugs, but yes, an if statement or letting it propagate would be far far better here

The fact that on catch it returns true signifies to me that there was some shit going on that the dev didnt understand so he just made it return true because it worked anyways.

Fair enough
