Hi, what could be the reason if browser is showing progress bar (stuck at half) as if it is still trying to load something, even after the page is rendered. this is an intranet ASP.NET website. how can I find out the reason? the browser is IE8. actually this started after the browser is upgraded from IE6 to IE8. not sure if this issue has anything to do with browser upgrade. will the tools like Fiddler can help to find out what it is still trying to load? thanks in advance.

A: 

May be some javascript code still running...!!

may be, but how to find that out? page works fine with all the images downloaded. but browser gives an impression that it is still processing something. I would like to know what it is so I can fix it.

Do you have any onload scripts that are using document.write() that don't call document.close() when they're done? This will cause the browser to wait, expecting more...

no, there are no document.writes in the code. the page itself looks ok with all images downloaded and works fine. but the browser for some reason still shows the progress. some pages use third party controls which emit dynamic javascript, not sure if there is a bug in them.

Could be AJAX requests. Fiddler will help.

Check if u have behavior attached to any control. It happens sometime due to behavior.
