Display blink during PostBack

[E11esar]

Hi there. This may be something I just have to live with but is there a way to stop the computer screen blinking off and then back on during a PostBack please?

This is within ASP.Net and C# and an AutoPostBack operation.

Thank you.

Hi,

If the screen blinks when u select an item from DropDownList(=D DL),
then u should set the value of the DDL.AutoPostBac k to false and then the problem will fix.
But if u mean u want to do complex actions with client-server "talking" without refreshing the page then u should learn some Ajax ..

To start with ajax read here and then seek for more information : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASP.NET_AJAX

Hi there and thank you for the reply. I do use AJAX a lot and this is an asp.net page utilising AJAX functionality by way of tabs and textbox autofill extender. The postback is coming from a TextBox field so I'll have a search for what stops this "blinking" by way of AJAX as I didn't think this was related as such.

Solution

In addition to my post above, the solution is to use an AJAX UpdatePanel.

Thank you.
