    UpdateWindow just sends the WM_PAINT message to your app, it doesn't actually cause painting to happen. basically painting happens whenever your app has nothing else to do and your app gets around to processing the WM_PAINT message. that's not going to happen in the middle of a function (unless you're doing something like an old-school Message Pump between statements). but, basically, there is no "erase" functionality. there is only draw. if you need to erase drawing A, you have to draw what was there before you drew A.

      Try RedrawWindow[^] instead of Invalidate...

          Are you using IWebBrowser2?

                  Are you changing the HTML that the IWebBrowser2 control is rendering?

                      Which means that anytime the Web browser control redraws itself, anything drawn on top of it goes away.
