ViewState briefly showing

Amelyan

A weird problem is happening every 1/500 times page is used. When page
posts back, it briefly shows ViewState in the browser just like it appears
when you do "view source", then shows the original contents of the page
before button on the page has been clicked.

This happens on Windows XP Professional with service pack 2 and IE 6.

<input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE" id="__VIEWSTATE"
value="/wEPDwUJNjY0NjM0ODIyD2QWAmYPZBYEAgMPZBY....


Page is a simple Web Form that has simple Master Page. Web Form contains
MultiView control, inside MultiView control is a View control that contains
a panel with dynamically added Web Controls and button user clicks (as
described above)

Any help would be great!

Thanks!

What you can do is when you see this 'strange page' view html source in the
notepad. There might be unclosed HTML tag / improperly formatted HTML code.

This occasionally happens for any web page. Page elements that should not
display show up, either permanently or for a fraction of a second.
Different reasons I am familiar with are the browser attempting to render
what it has received so far of the page, or an initial misrendering of the
page until it processes more html/css, or as was stated the page is not
received correctly, which will happen more on dialup or satellite
connections.

Take care,
Tony

Hi Tony,

I got more details from one of my customers who could reproduce the problem
on her machine

1) When the page loads, she clicks the button
2) Page posts back, and briefly displays the full VIEWSTATE tag in the
browser
3) The original page loads again as if the action has not been executed
4) She is still on the same page with the same url in address bar when she
clicks the button again, it displays IE 6's generic "The page cannot be
displayed The page you are looking for is currently unavailable......blah
blah blah"

Do you think it is a problem with internet connection, or maybe some browser
settings, or maybe something else?

Thanks gain!
