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

[Ray Stevens]

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.
