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 when the
process is complete.
Please do let me know of any options that I can use for this...
Thanks in advance

Hi Kannan,
I assume you call some serversidescrip t that takes a lot of time to finish.
Is that correct?
If correct, this is an easy way to accomplish your wishes:
1) let the server output HTML that includes some javascript.
Be sure to flush this!
2) the javascript is written in the head, and executed right away (no
OnLoad!!)
3) The javascript creates a new window that contains a nice 'please wait'
with some progresbar. Lets name it windowPLeaseWai t.
4) when you serverside script finishes, it outputs new javascript with the
windowPLeaseWai t.close()
That should do the trick.
Regards,
Erwin Moller

Just be aware that pop-up blockers will block this.

True Mike,
If that is a worry, a good alternative could be:
Place an image 'please wait' (animated or not) and replace that image when
the end-of-page is flushed with an empty image or 'finished'.

Hi
I have a form that opens a new window for the results. Because the results
might take a few seconds due to server processing, I would like to display
a message "please wait" in the new window, erase that message when the
processing is done and show the results.
How is this done?

I've seen on some php forums that they use some type of popup box that
I assume is javascript to display a animated gif/flash when you do a
quick edit. My popup blocker does not detect it so I leads me to
believe it is javascript. Does anyone have an ideas on how I can do
this or an example/tutorial? They use it on Invision Power Boards
Thanks

Hi all,
I have database actions that will potentially take several seconds to
complete.
My normal page uses AJAX so keeping the user informed of what is
happening is not a problem.
However, the page also has fallback code in case of no Javascript. In
this case I would like to display temporary "please wait" type page

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
