When I click on link, blank page will appear.
Is it really blank? Does View Source have anything there?
Sometimes you will get this symptom if pseudo redirects
(e.g. ones implemented either via Meta HTTP-Equiv Refresh
or via JavaScript) aren't working. The most likely cause would be
overly strict Security settings. Try using Default Level.
Then I refresh page and the contents appear.
Do you have an anti-virus app (or any other third-party program)
which would be interfering with the operation of the TIF?
This aspect of your symptom description looks more as if
the files have been downloaded and (if cacheable) stored in the TIF
but something is preventing IE from rendering with them.
When you Refresh requests will go out referring to the cached versions
of the files and very likely responses will come back referring to them too
so you will be less likely to see the effects of whatever is causing the
interference. BTW this would only happen consistently with a cache
checking setting of Every visit... (Alt-T,O,Alt-S,E)
To probe this aspect of your problem try using Ctrl-F5 for your Refresh.
That will cause the TIF to be completely bypassed by the request phase
and hence cause the response phase to have material which can be interfered with.
Alternatively, you could cause an offline rendering completely from the TIF
(bypassing any interference in the network path) by setting Work Offline
and cloning the window (e.g. using Alt-F,W and Ctrl-N).
You could also inspect your TIF before trying either Refresh to see
if any files there have not been used in rendering. (Alt-T,O,Alt-S,V
then use View Details and Sort by Last Accessed (Alt-V,D Alt-V,I,...))
Another tool to use to really find out what is going in with the TIF
would be FileMon (from SysInternals). Filter on the TIF path,
exclude QUERY, and highlight WRITE. If another program
is interfering with the TIF you would probably be able to detect it that way.
BTW in future please choose your discussion subjects more
carefully. I often ignore such misleading or generic ones as "Links".
Good luck
