ASP.NET Frame Question
-
Good afternoon, I'm attempting to create an ASP.NET website that has two horizontal frames. A top frame will be a frame that loads back data from 6 sql stored procedures and dumps them into datagrids. The bottom frame will contain several buttons, listboxes, and other user interaction controls. The problem I'm having is that I want the user controls in the bottom frame to load first so that the user can use them while the queries run one by one in the top and fill out the scoreboard. I have tried both an inline frame (using one for the top section) and normal frames, but I can't get them to do what I'm looking for. Can someone point me in the right direction? David

Since they are in frames they should load independently of each other, as long as the target pages are different. What behavior are you seeing?

What I'm seeing is that the top frame (which runs a sql stored procedure in it's page load event) remains blank along with the bottom frame. When the data grid comes back in the top frame, the test button appears in the bottom frame. This takes around 10-15 seconds, which is consistant with how long I expect the stored procedure to take. I had expected the button in the bottom frame to pop up immediately and have that frame be usable while the top frame continued to wait for the sql data to come back. David

I will look into AJAX...it's something I've never used before. Do you know any good places to start? Most of my asp.net programming has focused on doing as little as possible on the html side and as much as possible on the VB Code behind. David
Another possibility may be to be to load the top page empty, so the bottom will also load, then immediately kick off a postback on the top to load the data.
