busy indicator?

[t4nu]

Hi,
Anybody ever use busy indicator for a long process? Would you please let me know where to find the guide or how to document to implement it in ebase application?
Thanks in advance for the help.

Thanks for the link, but let me make it more clearer.

I put those code shown in the link as a client side script, right?
then if the click of the button (for. eg) do something in the backend (such as update the table then send email), the script just need to call the function (the function need to be a client callable function), is that right?

Yes you could do it like that.

It works fine for me. Are you sure your code is being executed? Try using debugging tools in the browser, add an alert statement etc.

Yes, I am sure.
The alert appear, the cursor is not change to wait mode.
But the screen is somekind of freeze until the server script end.
But at least now the user cannot click the button again when the server script is still processing.
