Hello,
On my master page, I added a menu. I noticed that when I'm debugging, there is series of (5) blank pages show up under Script Documents. There is also a series of 8 eo_web.ash?ids listed in the same location. This is for a completely blank test web page but on a page that I several eo controls, I can have up to 25 of these blank files. It's causing the published web page to display about:blank so many times that it's affecting performance.
I replaced the menu with a Visual Studio menu and these blank file do not get created. I was hoping you can give me some information on these blank files.
These files only get created when using Internet Explorer. In Firefox and they don't show up and performance is perfect.
Content of each blank named file is : <HTML></HTML>
We are government and must use Internet Explorer 8 at this point.
Thank you. Dan

Hi, Those pages are necessary to avoid a known IE issue where some windowed controls (such as ListBox) would be shown above a sub menu. In order to improve performance, you can specify a physical script file location (look for "physical script files" in that page: http://www.essentialobjects.com/doc/1/installationanddeployment/deploy.aspxOnce you specify a script directory, all .js files will be created in that directory. A few additional files such as blank.html will also be created there. Once those files are created, all pages will start to reference "real" files from there. This usually works better because both IIS and IE caches real file much more reliably than caching dynamically generated files. Thanks!
