Animated gif works in FireFox but not IE

J

John Kotuby

Hi all,

I have a search screen that when submitted displays a previously hidden
absolutely positioned DIV with an included animated gif picture. In FireFox
while the search is happenning on the server (before the server sends a
response) the animation of the gif works just fine.

But in IE7 it is static.

Does anyone know of a way to fix this?

Thanks...

when a postback is in progress, ie will not start the extra thread required
to run an animated gif.

there are two options, switch to an ajax call for the search, or return
response right away, start a server thread to do the search, and use a meta
tag to poll for results.
