I have a reasonable complex layout, with Iframes for each regions content.

When a region is opened (ie floatable property), the region reloads.

This causes variosu issues in IE.

here is the use case for checking this bug from IE:

1.
http://gedw99.ubuntusoftware.net

2.
login: admin
password: moyllith10

3. In the Preview Region, the main content wil have an "edit" link.
Click this ans the edit region wil open.

4. No try floating the edit region and the bug wil be obvious.

Regards

This is a bug in most browsers. There is no workaround. All I can suggest is replacing the iframes with divs which can be loaded with content. I think you will find performance will improve as well.

Hye Jack,

I would love to replace the Iframes with DIVS. Unfortunately i am using an existing system that uses complete postback based on ASP.NET, and converting all the app to Ajax is too much for me right now.

Can you tell me. Is there a way to have a DIV contain just a FORM, and then just post back and update that using standard ASP.NET. All i would have to do is take the <html> tags, etc out of the pages then effectively?
Sorry to ask
