IE 8.0 + asp.net == slow ?

[Necuno]

just hovering over a asp button makes ie 8.0 jumps to 27% cpu usage. any one else had this ?

Might be a badly-written script for the onmouseover event handler?

there is no omo just this

<asp:Button ID="btnSelectCourse" runat="server" CssClass="BlueButton" Text="Select" Width="71px" OnClick="btnSelectCourse_Click" Enabled="False" />

i meant Asp Button, my bad. ammended. FF don't have this issue at all.

 

[Necuno]

you have IE 8.0 running at the moment ?

 

[FarligOpptreden]

Nah, don't have it running, so can't really test. Just thought that a script might be causing the slowdown.

i know your problem necuno, its I.E 8

post the css.. thou i doubt its that, what type of cpu jump do you get in firefox?

 

[Necuno]

this only occurs when i have a temple comlumn in a grid with a check box added to it.

when i remove the checkbox from the temple column all speedy ie8.0 returns.

i think you might be correct, i do apply a custom css to the gridview

<asp:GridView ID="gvEmployees" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" class="Grid" GridLines="None">
    <Columns>
        <asp:BoundField DataField="EmployeeNumber" HeaderText="Number" />
        <asp:BoundField DataField="EmployeeFullName" HeaderText="Employee" />
[B]        <asp:TemplateField>
            <ItemTemplate>
                <asp:CheckBox ID="CheckBox1" runat="server" />
            </ItemTemplate>
        </asp:TemplateField>[/B]
    </Columns>
<EditRowStyle CssClass="GridEditRow" />
<RowStyle CssClass="GridRow" />
<FooterStyle CssClass="GridFooter" />
<PagerStyle CssClass="GridPager" />
<SelectedRowStyle CssClass="GridSelectedRow" />
<HeaderStyle CssClass="GridHeader" />
<AlternatingRowStyle CssClass="GridAternatingRow" />
</asp:GridView>

.Grid td
{
	word-wrap: break-word;
	padding:4px;
	color:#333333;
}

.GridRow
{
	background-color:#F7F6F3;
	color:#333333
}

.GridFooter
{
	background-color:#5D7B9D;
	font-weight:bold;
	color:#FFFFFF
}

.GridPager
{
	background-color:#284775;
	color:#FFFFFF;
	text-align:center
}

.GridSelectedRow
{
	background-color:#E2DED6;
	font-weight:bold;
	color:#333333
}

.GridHeader th
{
    word-wrap: break-word;
	padding:3px;
	background-color:#5D7B9D;
	font-weight:bold;
	color:#FFFFFF;
	text-align:left
}

.GridEditRow
{
	background-color:#999999
}

.GridAlternatingRow
{
	background-color:White;
	color:#284775
}

:update
though when i remove all the css, its still slowish as soon as the checkbox is added.

That CSS doesn't look like it should break it.

That's the one thing I have about .NET Grids - they add a lot of bloated markup that can slow down the page. I steer as far away from them as possible. Mind you, I steer away as far from a grid-based layout as possible. I HATE data grids!

i ditched the thing for a CheckBoxList. comes down to the same thing i wanted to achieve, having employees and then doing checked those who will be saved/removed etc etc.

still this seems to be an exact ie8.0 behavior. i can only guess its to do with the added "dev tools"....

 

[Necuno]

...removing the ****ing thing. back to ie7, since the issue don't replicate in ff.

 

[semaphore]

ie 8 is ****

 

[FarligOpptreden]

I haven't even used IE8 yet and realized it's a load of cr@p. Just the mere fact that it tries to be standards compliant "by default" and has an emulation mode for older IE compatibility raises a bit of suspicion. All those extra layers just add bloat and makes browsing the web feel slow and laborious.

well ie7 is running smooth.

My IE8 is screwing with me too. I get huge CPU spikes.. on websites. My Web Outlook hangs for 5 seconds while i type, and then contines... , hangs... continues. Never had this problem with IE 7.

 

[Dark Agent]

Nope, IE8 works fine for be. ASP opens same time.
Maybe mine is used on a crack version on windows

and IE8 rocks

i guess its to do with the extra dev tools (press F12) they are nice, it got better when i disabled all the addons and accelorators, but still dragged its feet on a full blown developed page.

I love the new extra dev tool. I used IE Dev Toolbar to death. Looks like the dev IE Dev Toolbar into IE8.

I just would love a visual indication of how big the page is and the speed it took to download each include (like firebug)

Whenever I try to debug an asp.net application and IE8 has to load from scratch, it takes ages (about 20 seconds). If I use Chrome or Opera, they both load instantly.

WRT the dev toolbar - I miss the old one used in IE7. The built in java console in Chrome isn't too bad .
