Hi Imar,

At the end of the Try it Out, speaking about the Message Sent animation, the text says during pageLoad there is no animation beause there is an empty matched set.

I'm not sure I understand this fully.

Is the asp:Label w/ID="Message" not present in the page at the client at that time or is it present but not visible? Based on the answer to this, I may have a follow up question.

Thanks.

Best Regards,
Alan

Yes, it's not present, as its Visible property is initially False *on the server* which means its HTML is never sent to the browser.

Cheers,

Imar
