Sluggish Response
posted

Hi,

I have a listbar that behaves very sluggishly when there are many panels/controls on a page. This problem only occurs in Internet Explorer, the response is fine in FireFox.

To illustrate please check this link in IE and FireFox. In IE the mouse hover behaviour is much slower.

Does anyone have any ideas what I can check to improve the response in Ie.

    Unforutnately IE browsers in general (and especially IE6) are much slower than FireFox, especially when it comes to interpreting javascript/DHTML. There are many references and test that show that, for example:

    and while we do our best to optimize our performance, a lot of it relies on the browsers hosting the controls.
