RadControls for ASP.NET are no longer supported (see this page for reference). In case you have inquiries about the Telerik ASP.NET AJAX controls, post them in the pertinent ASP.NET AJAX forums.

    Hi, I've been having a problem with mouse flicker and found a solution that works great for me and thought I'd share it here.

    In the <head> section of your pages that have flicker issues, paste the following code:

    <script language="javascript">
    try {
      document.execCommand("BackgroundImageCache", false, true);
    } catch(err) {}
    </script>

    This actually even speeds up the processing time of your pages.  I've tested it with a few Telerik controls - specifically the tab control which I had horrible flicker issues with and it fixed the problem.  Note that the effect of this on other image based controls is unknown to me at this time(specifically graph rendering controls etc.).

    If you are using Telerik Controls with DotNetNuke, edit the "Default.aspx" page and paste the code into the <head> section and it resolves the issue in IE6.

    Yep, this is a great IE6 hack which solves the problem. I actually learned it directly from telerik docs, for example here (the troubleshooting section of radMenu):

    Ha, thanks - That's a good place for it!  Didnt find that in the docs, just general references to some places to try looking; but lots of references to people with the problem.

    Thanks

    Yep, I agree - here is a good place for it since this issue is certainly not product specific, but rather cures a lot of css problems for all products.
