Displaying "Please wait" image on button click for lengthy process

Hi

Our app performs a quite lengthy process when the user clicks a button. We'd
like to display a little pop-up "Please Wait..." notification using an
animated gif.

How would I go about this?

Thanks

Hello, I have a requirement that specifies that I display a "Please Wait..." window (preferably modal) along with a gif that mimics a progress bar during a save operation. The dialog needs to be closed at the end of the operation. How do I go about this... Issues are: 1. I believe a showModaldialog would stop all back ground processing and shift control to the modal dialog. 2. I would like to close the dialog from the parent window...

There turns out to be about 2-5 seconds delay between the time the user clicks the radiobutton and when the page is completely re-loaded. During this time the user may try...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
