<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>I was trying out a tooltip: which displays
an image as well as an iframe. The tooltip with just an image (it is set
programmatically) works fine in both IE as well as Firefox. If the source
of the IFRAME points to an html page, then also it works fine in both the
browsers. However, if the source of the iframe points to a jsp page, then the
below mentioned problem occurs in the case of IE. The tooltip keeps flickering
and the mgserver dies after a while. It works fine in the case of :Firefox as
well as the Autodesk studio preview pane, though.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

bit. But, the original issue was raised (and I believe enterered in
Project Tracker) almost a year ago when both I and Juan Butler had the
problem. We, including a couple of the Autodesk developers, were able to
readily replicate it and only happens when referencing images in the
tooltip. Other HTML elements appear to be OK, except for the case that
Scott noted below. I've tried it without the image and with a pile of
other HTML, and those instances worked fine.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

was a topic many months (or more like a year) ago. When images are
referenced in the tooltip for a layer, the <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City

some very odd results. If it takes too long for the image to be returned,
say more than 4 or 5 seconds, it's like it tries to call the image again and
then this causes a loop which makes the tooltip to appear to blink. For
an example that I just ran into, see </span></font><a
