Best practice : Displaying a waiting page

I am looking for a way to display a waiting page whilst some processing is
happening. Depending on the result of that processing I may go back to the
original page ( and maintian view state) or go on to some other page.
I have a threaded approach working but when going back to the original page
the view state is lost.

Does anyone have any examples of the best practice for this sort of
situation?

thanks
Gordon

Chapter 3 has good examples of what you want to do.

Hello: I would like to know the best way to spend idle cycles while waiting for a thread to complete.

Hi all, I am pretty new to asp.net; I've done lots of classic asp, but am just beginning to get my mind wrapped around .net. What I'd like to do is include some code that tests if a user is logged in, on each and every page, and redirects the user to a login page if s/he's not logged in. The login page will also take care of some standard setup, such as choosing/populating a user profile. I used to use <!-- #include ... --for this,...

Hi there, I'm pretty new to ASP.NET, and have a "best practice" sort-of question. I'm programming for .NET 2.0, using VB.Net in Visual Studio 2002. Basically, I've got a web-page which is designed to show data about Tenants. It consists of a form showing 6 "boxes" of data, each relating to an aspect of the tenancy (Client, Rent, Landlord, etc). Each box contains 'n' pieces of information.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

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,...
