What makes my page jump?

K

Ken D.

I am developing an Intranet page. Each page uses the same template
consisting of a logo, header and left side navigation. Whenever I click a
menu item, the only part of the page that should change is the main cell
since the logo, header and menu are all the same. What is happening is that
the page is reloading and the user is frustrated. One final note, the main
page is an .asp page displaying announcements posted to the SQL Server.

Any help would be great...

Ken;
I ran into the same thing with my ASP site, based on templates.
Mine has a top banner and Lf nav bar that stays on all page loads.

I set the left column cell width at 130pixels & position top LF, to lock it
down and set my banner setting @ 100% to expand with resolution ( carefull of
images in banner, They will repeat in high resolution if they are not long
enough., if this happens, make LF & RT boarder extentions and position it
center of Left. )

Eventually your brouser will cache the page consistant images,columns &
banner which should help with making it appear that only the content portion
is reloading each time.

Ken,
I've encountered a problem that sounds very similar....see my posting
entitled 'Mysterious Jumping text'. You might want to keep an eye on that
discussion thread too.
