I would actually set Triggers within your updatepanel.
My gut feeling is that it has something to do with the use of the OnTextChanged event. For kicks, try adding a button next to the text box, and reflow the repeater when the button is clicked instead. Does IE still freeze?
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
