Have a .htm main page with 9 iframes included. It runs the report Progress bar shows once quickly, then second time it never finishes (gets to about 50%). I have tried using this...
  
function fixprogressbar() 
{ 
top.garbageframe.document.write(""); 
top.garbageframe.close(); 
return 
} 


and calling that in window_onload()
  
<SCRIPT for=window eventname="onload">window.onload = function() { window_onload(); }</SCRIPT>


And creating a blank iframe called garbageframe.

The progress bar is still loading and never finishes. Anyone else know a fix for this?

The key with the status bar is that it only knows that the request submitted has not finished, and nothing else.

As WAZ pointed out, the "status bar" really isn't an indicator of your status. The problem is that one or more of the programs in the 9 IFRAMES hasn't finished. Have you tested them individually?

I have to admit that I have had web pages with multiple iframes, and I have seen the same issue. In my case the pages were fully loaded. I guess that IE loses the plot.
