AJAX :: IE8 Not Rendering - Unhide A Div With An Animated Loading Icon - Then Hide It Again When Loading Is Complete
Aug 26, 2010
Im trying to add some simple display features to a web application and am running into some unexpected IE8 behavior. Basically, the app runs some database retrieval from the server using Ajax techniques, and during that time (say, 30 seconds), I want to just give the user a clue as to whats going on. It could be as simple as a wait cursor. More interesting, I prefer to unhide a div with an animated loading icon, then hide it again when loading is complete.
I have a site that is very jQuery and image heavy. The main sections of the site link to sections that are built with several Tabs, and as it loads, you briefly see all the content load and then it is hidden by the Tabs code.
The plan is to have a full window DIV that sits above all the content with a loading icon that plays until the entire page loads, and then it fades down.
After some hair pulling and research I have code in place that does exactly as I ask, however it does not seem to work in IE6+7. It works in all other browsers.
I have a lot of javascript functions that request information from an iframe hidden on the page. I see other sites do this, but their browser does not do the loading action (like the processing circle in Firefox). When I do it on my site, each browser shows the loading icon, as if a page was loading. Is it possible to not have this?

That is a sample link. Go down right side of page where you see three buttons: Trailers Featurettes Clips.Those return iframe information to work.
I have a function that displays a loading icon just before the ajax call starts, but I wanted to display that icon only if the ajax call takes longer than 3 seconds. My question is: How to implement a counter after the ajax call?
I have a news ticker in my site, which is using prototype. It works good in all browsers, but the problem is while loading the news ticker content is rendering outside the div.
Is there any ways to hide the content while loading or any other ideas to prevent it loading outside the div.
This thing is being seen on many websites...! while page is loading.. user see a page loading Icon until the page loads..! i dont knw wht exactly it is called.? some links or script so that i can us e it for my page..!
Im not a developer but I managed to fumble together a simple website and implemented an upload form from html-form-guide.com, but i want to add a loading icon to let the user know that its actually doing something, especially for larger files.
So what happens is that I have a page that uses a Javascript tab navigation div, named 'Tabber', working perfectly. Basically it picks up HTML tags with a specific classname and after the page is loaded it creates a small portion of HTML to create the desired effect. The problem is that it only does it after the page is loaded, which I am fine with it, but before that, the contents of that same div (that come from a SQL query) are not formated and the page just breaks apart untill the document is fully loaded (my current workaround is an overflow:hidden but...it is still ugly to watch), and only then it adjusts itself due to the right CSS propreties.
Now, it would be great if I could just have a loading icon showing up inside the div while the page is not loaded, so I can manage to hide that Javascript HTML injection process.
I have an onclick that triggers ajax which calls a php script to pull data from MySQL. This information is then displayed in a div. The problem I am having is that sometimes pulling the data from MySQL takes 2-3 seconds, so the div is empty for about 2-3 seconds. How would I go about adding an animated "Loading" gif to display in the div while it is waiting to display the content?
how do i code such that all gifs are loaded without missing any one of them ? I always get missing few gifs when the page loading with 30 gifs. I use IE6 to browse many <a href='myurl'><img src='mygif.gif'></a>
I'm building some forms, and when they are submitted, I'd like to integrate a method that will fade out the screen a bit, and show an animated "processing" .gif. Basically when the "submit" button is pressed, the form is being submitted to it's destination. The page will hang on the form until the next page is ready to load. While it's hanging there after submitting, I'd like the screen to fade out, and display an image in the center of the screen. I'm hoping this can be achieved with CSS, as I try to use as little Javascript as possible.What's the best way to achieve this? I figure if anything a javascript "onsubmit" function will be a good start. Can the screen be faded with CSS?
I have only started to learn HTML, CSS, and Javascript (roughly 2 weeks now). I am having a issues regarding when I submit form data to the server. I want to temporarily disable the 'submit' button while the browser is loading and then reactivate it once everything has finished loading. This was my attempt at doing this.
If you scroll to the bottom, and click: "See what our users have to say" and you can see the sliders.
It's working in all browsers but Safari, the script just doesn't seem to be loading, I get the loading scroller bars but they don't fully load. What is the best way to debug JS - is that the right term?
I have this loading.gif image that is 750px, when it should be 32px. The reason it's huge now is because my original solution was displaying two images: one 750px version of the loading.gif image and one 32px version (in the center of the 750px) of the same image. Now I'm at least down to one image, even if it's the wrong version.Click any of the thumbnail images here, and then again on the thumbnail at the top of that popup product gallery to see what I mean: need that huge loading.gif to be 32px like it should be, and then expand to 750px once the image is loaded. I've tried a bunch of solutions, but nothing has solved the problem.This is the code I have at the moment, although I'm working on the issue now so it may change.
$('#inline .thumbGrid img').click(function(){ var strLargeImg = document.getElementById('OBOEsac'); $('.galleryPopup').attr('src','/site/scripts/colorbox/images/loading.gif');
I have a script i downloaded to add a twitter feed to a page on my site. Everything works perfectly, except there is at least 15-20 seconds until twitter loads, so what the user sees is a blank spot, and if JavaScript is disabled, its obviously a blank space.I wanted to add a placeholder such as an animated gif to that spot, I just don't know how to go about doing that, and how would i have the gif hide when the script functions.
I recently set up a JQuery script to show and hide a specific DIV on my site. Everything is working correctly except when the page is loading, the DIV is fully expanded and hides as it's supposed to a few seconds later. Ideally, I would like this DIV to remain hidden until the user actually clicks on it. This seems to be a performance issue, but honestly I am a JavaScript novice so I really don't know where to go from here.
The page in questions is here. And the specific areas that use this script are the "Change Log" and "Readme" boxes.
It's for a photo gallery like this http:[url].....php but the one I need it for has 100 images so the page loads much slower. I can't just put the loading gif behind the images (as you would normaly) because you can see it with each image fade in and out. how I can have a loading gif show "only" while the images are initially loading, and then it goes away?
I have a jQuery script that loads and displays a small window on a mouse hover. I use jQuery AJAX to load the content on that window. Having that, I noticed that loading the response from php file (which does not have a php code, only the file has .php on its name) is slower than the same file content with .html name. I wonder if this is a common problem or there is some issue with my codes. I will post my code if needed (if that seems to be the problem).Note: I mentioned that there is no php code in the php file because I am only testing the performance currently. After it is developed, there will be (obviously) php code in it.
I have created a party-events website. Which displays a lot of dates of events. As you might understand this page takes some time to load. Therefor I want some of loading image to be displayed while the page is loading. Anybody has an idea how to pull this of? I don't know how.
In detail: People come to my website. They click on "events" and a loading.gif pops up and and makes the background darker. After the page has completely loaded the loading image disappears and the website shows.
I have embed a flash player known as: JW player into my website and put it into a div. Now my problem is I want javascript to hide the div containing the flash player for atleast a few seconds to display a loading image.gif. How would I set this up?
I have php script that reads an image from database and outputs it.If i send request via AJAX i get the "inside" of the image into responseText, how to output it to a browser.so i can see an image instead an text?
Let's say my site is located in a folder named 'temp'. My index.php is in that folder and there is also a folder named 'common' where I've stored my .php files that I also load.
[Code]...
However, in whenever I click on a link (from the index.php that has main_menu.php included), it doesn't seem to work. Always getting the msg "There was a problem with your request"). Does it have to do with the fact that my pages are in .php? And if so, how can I modify my code to work with .php files?
