[Fary4u]

I've got iframe when somebody click on the button it's display on the webpage but it's take about 10 sec to load before that any possibility to display something wd div script or any javascript ( HTML, IMG ) ?

Yes, you could have a hidden div or image on the page (display:none or visibility:hidden) which you would show when the button is clicked (style.display = 'block') and hide again when the iframe has loaded.

you could try the network module of FireBug/Firefox to see, what the actual load times are.

Yes the same thing i'm doing but i want 10 sec timer or something ?

<div style="display:none" id="pic">
  <iframe name="wait" src="show_img.asp" border="0" ></iframe>
</div>
 
document.getElementById("pic").style.display='inline';

i want just timer or something else to show like this ?

Display please wait picture before the show_img.asp is not loaded ?
by default it's not executed it's only displaying when somebody click on it.

Hi,

Please refer this thread:

So you want the iframe to show only after it's loaded? Use the iframe onload event handler to show the iframe when ready.

@acoder
yes i've used this but it's came up very quickly
i've trying to use onafterupdate but it's don't work &

If it loads quickly, then there's no need to display a wait/loading message. If it does take 10 seconds or so, the onload will be fired when the iframe has loaded at which point you can hide the div/image.

If you insist on showing it for 10 seconds, you can use setTimeout(), but it would be unreliable because the iframe may take longer to load or it might load in only 2-3 seconds.
