Message: [QUOTE="bruce barker, post: 3962949"] your test is wrong. the updateprogress control is designed to run during an async (ajax) postback. the postback is returning right away with a redirect commend. the ajax code receives this, and sets the document.location to the new url (to do the redirect). at this point all bets are off, the browser is now navigating to a new page (that takes 5 seconds to respond). during navigation many browsers will stop the background thread that runs animated gifs, may ignore dom updates, etc. there is no defined behavior during this phase. if you are doing this on your local box, the redirect response may come before the progress bar even has chance to start. -- bruce (sqlwork.com) [/QUOTE]
