C#/ASP.NET: Panel border does not paint...

115 New Member

This is a weird one. I have a page that has two Panels on it with BorderStyle set to double. In design mode everything looks as it should. When I start the page up or move it to a production server, the borders on the Panel do not show up unless you first minimize the browser and bring it back up or move a window over it/force the window to repaint. I thought maybe it was just my comp but i see it on any IE6 computer. Firefox and Safari paint the border no problem.

Has anyone seen this before??

[HTML] <asp:Panel ID="Panel1" runat="server" BorderStyle="Do uble" Height="185px" Style="left: 27px; position: absolute; top: 163px; z-index: 101;" Width="335px">

<asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Font-Bold="True" Font-Names="Microsof t Sans Serif" Height="20px" Style="left: 3px; position: absolute; top: 8px; text-align: center;" Text="Candidate s by specialty" Width="330px" />

<select id="sel_special ty" runat="server" style="position : absolute; left: 62px; width: 212px; top: 33px;">
</select>

I've not seen this particular problem before but it would probably be helpful to see the mark-up that this code generates. Take a look at the html source, find the appropriate part (your asp:Panel will have been turned into a div) and see what style settings it has.

It seemed to be correct..I even took at the ASP code and put the HTML div in myself.

this is what was being generated for each Panel:
[HTML]<div id="div1" style="left: 27px; position: absolute; top: 163px; width: 335px; height: 185px; z-index: 101; border-style: Double">
...
</div>[/HTML]

I stripped the page of javascript, and an include virtual which was my header and it still does it!
Heres the stripped page (also, i took out the panels and changed border-style to just border):

</iframe>

</form>
</body>
</html>[/HTML]

I also stripped the code behind file down to nothing.

What I have done to fix this issue is put a second div inside of the first with border: double and it works good enough for me. But please, by all means have a crack at it. If you see whats wrong let me know!

Here's how to fix this properly:

fieldset{
padding: 0.2em 0.5em;
border:1px solid green;
color:green;
font-size:90%;
text-align:right;
}

Put this code into your css file, or the css markup on the page.
