I am using DWCS4...

I have all my CSS within each page....

IN IE (ver8) I notice a flashing between pages...I have done some research on this but am not sure how to fix this...

Can anyone give me help on this? Thank you

Here is the code:

<style type="text/css">
<!--
a:link {
    color: #06F;
    }
a:visited {
    color: #03F;
    }
a:hover {
    color: #666;
    }
a:active {
    color: #00F
    }
#apDiv1 {
    position:relative;
    margin: 1px auto 0 auto;
    width: 850px;
    height: 660px;
    background-color: #FFF;
    z-index:1;
    top: 5px;
    border:groove;
}
#apDiv2 {
    position:absolute;
    width:376px;
    height:65px;
    z-index:2;
    left: 71px;
    top: 4px;
    color: #FFF;
    font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size:18px;
}
#apDiv3 {
    position:absolute;
    width:63px;
    height:24px;
    z-index:3;
    left: 236px;
    top: 94px;
    font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size: 18px;
    color: #FFF;
}
#apDiv4 {
    position:absolute;

    position:absolute;
    width:95px;
    height:25px;
    z-index:2;
    left: 576px;
    top: 94px;
    font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size: 18px;
    color: #FFF;
}

    Please repost in the Dreamweaver forum.

    Why is it always the dreamweavers that stumble in here?

    Maybe the light green icon with bold black "DW" letters on top is too hard to notice.

    Yes you are correct, sorry for barking up wrong Tree.


    In that case, sounda like some conflict in IE.

    Flash of Unstyled Content  or FOUC is not just an IE problem.

    See the Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_of_unstyled_content

    In effect,  "The FOUC appears only during the initial page load of a page that uses the CSS @import rule to reference the CSS style sheet." Source: TechRepulic.
