  Page not visible in IE

  Aug 14, 2008 04:31 PM | LINK

  1. New SilverLight app
  2. Change Project Type to "Web Application Project"
  3. Click OK
  4. In Page.xaml change the grid background from white to yellow
  5. Run the app

  Expected: Yellow grid
  Actual: Nothing visible at all

  View it in FireFox and you see it.  Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?

  Hi

  Could you post a demo project that can reproduce this problem?

  I have better steps

  1. Create new SilverLight app
  2. Select "Web application" in the wizard combobox
  3. Click OK
  4. Add a TextBox to the grid with Text="1"
  5. Run the app
  6. Note you see a text box with "1" in IE
  7. Stop the app
  8. Change the XAML so that Text="2"
  9. Run the app again

  Exp: TextBox with Text="2"
  Act: TextBox with Text="1"

  I closed VS, deleted all bin and obj folders, reopened VS, re-ran.  I still see Text="1"

  If you cannot reproduce this then try this

  More info...

  This seems to be an IE7 caching problem.  If you keep changing the text at designtime, running, and refreshing IE I see the old value, but in FireFox I see the new value!  In my case the old value persists after an IE restart and VS restart and the only way to get the new value is to delete all IE cache.
