Browser flickering

Is there anyway to stop the flickering when a page refreshes in the browser?
I am thinking maybe something to do with buffering and repainting the page
over the old one instead fo clearing the display and then redrawing. My ASP
page always fills the available browser window.

Any help much appreciated

Mark,

Turn on the page property SmartNavigation by setting it to true. It will
stop the browser flicker in IE...

There can be problems with it, but I've had good success in most cases.
Sometimes it will stop a redirect for example, but the workaround is to set
Page.SmartNavigation = False from the codebehind when running routines where
it causes problems...

The best way to resolve that is AJAX.
