I have a page with two frames. The first frame is a filter which dynamically populates dropdowns depending on user selection. The second frame displays the report when the user selects Run from the first frame. The problem is there is a lot of flashing to a white background when the either of these are trying to load. The color of the html page and reports backgrounds are all set to blue but yet I still see white. Does anyone know if you can change this?

Not sure how this is going to post as I had to remove tags and things in the HTML. If you can put this together and run it you can see that on changing the dropdown it reloads the filter and the background briefly changes to white causing a flashing effect as the background color is set to blue.

Thanks

Hi Susannah and JOMC26,

I went ahead and fixed it so you can now post HTML no problem. Sorry about that!

Monica

You can't. It's actually the browser that's making the page background flash. At the point where the page background is white, the browser is reloading the page from your web server. As the page is loading there's no way to prevent it from going back to the default document window background color (which is white generally).

It's controlled by that annoying Microsoft Windows thing, you know?
