An ActiveX control in an iframe object redraws when you click an HTML element that is located outside the iframe object in Internet Explorer 6 or in Windows Internet Explorer 7
Consider the following scenario. You host an ActiveX control in an
iframe object. The ActiveX control was built by using Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003 and uses GDI+ as a graphic library. In Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 or in Windows Internet Explorer 7, you open the HTML page that contains the
iframe object. You click an HTML element, such as a button, that is located outside the
iframe object. In this scenario, you notice that the ActiveX control redraws when you click the HTML element. The redraw process produces an unwanted flickering effect on the ActiveX control.
To work around this problem, enable the frame transparency for the
iframe object. To do this, add the
allowTransparency attribute to the
<IFRAME> tag. To do this, use the following syntax:
<IFRAME allowTransparency="true">
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.
For more information about the
allowTransparency attribute, visit the following Microsoft Developer Network (MSDN) Web site:
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Internet Explorer (Programming) 6 (SP1)
- Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0
- Windows Internet Explorer 7

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
