You may have a site that has background other than White.

<!– ckey=”72D5D611″ –>

And sometimes when using css/javascript menus,etc when the people navigate to other pages , you will see a Big Flash entering the eyes

Not to mention, average users will get Annoyed by this and leave the site unless you provide something that makes them cope that behavior of the browser

You may not notice this in famous Firefox browser but IE is prone to this kind of behavior
Foxkeh banners for Firefox 2

To fix the problem easily we can ask all users to switch to firefox but this is not always the case so

Here is the fix for Internet Explorer

we have tried some advice from fellow webmasters that you can setup cache on IIS webserver,etc.. most people dont have previlage to do that or their hosting admins may not be interested in doing that.

So without any ones help you can fix this yourself by using an Iframe

Make a new file like iframe.html or index.html whatsoever

Make the background to the color of your site background <body bgcolor = “xxxx”>

then make a iframe with this code

  • <iframe src=”http://secureslash.com/” allowtransparency=”true” align=”left” frameborder=”0″ height=”1024″ scrolling=”no” width=”100%”></iframe>

change the secureslash.com with your site url.

And dont forgot that, You need to use some javascript to change the browser address bar url according to the current source of iframe. Google or Live it for doing this.

Thats it , Enjoy Cheers
