How do I prevent "flashing" when refreshing a web page?

I know there is a setting that will prevent screen flashing when refreshing
a web page but cannot seem to find it. Can someone point me in the right
direction?

I think you are looking for the SmartNavigation setting:
<%@ Page SmartNavigation ="true"%>

I'd be wary about enabling SmartNav - it tends to cause more problems
than it solves.

There are many reasons for this. The main reason is that your page is very
complicated and requires a lot of resources to paint.
The other possible reason is that you have a client-side handler that is
causing a refresh.

That is what I was looking for. I am not sure of the problems you are
referring to but our users were making a BIG deal of the refresh on the
order pages during testing and insist that we solve it. Unfortunately, the
complexity of the business rules in the application tier makes it all but
impossible to solve this problem any other way.

Hi, On my ASPx.NET page I have quite a lot of controls, so it takes a little time to build it. Because of this when you click on a button, the page is redrawn and whatever the action was, the page is changed. But most of the time, not always strangely enough, there is a white page when the old page (the page is in black background) is discarded and the new page is loaded. So everytime one clicks on a button, you'll get a white flash on...

I don't want my users to be able to press buttons/manipulate objects in my software during a "critical operation" (defined as a write operation back to the database, which happens on various threads). In order to prevent this, I am "disabling" UI components before starting the write thread and then "enabling" them again when the thread completes. One of the problems with this approach is that certain controls (listbox, treeview) render...

Hiya, I'm giving my vertical scrollbar the focus so it can handle mousewheel events. When I give it the focus with ScrollBar.Focus(), it starts flashing (at least the drag bar does). Is there any way to stop this from happening? Its quite distracting. Thanks.
