Ajax :: Function That Displays A Loading Icon Just Before The Call Starts
Aug 30, 2011
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?
When using .ajax, and when before I receive any data back from the server, I would like to call a function that could display some type of 'thinking' icon. In looking a the documentation I see there is a 'success', for when after receiving data back successfully, and an 'error', for obviously when something bad happens and need to error gracefully. I do not see something like a 'beforeSuccess' function that would allow me to specify, for example, to overlay a 'thinking icon' on top of a <div> after request is sent to the server and before I get any data back. I would assume this is a pretty standard necessity in ajax applications, and probably missing something here. How exactly is this done using the .ajax methods?
I am using multiple instances of the jquery datepicker on my form. Due to my CSS i could not use the icon trigger built-into jquery, it caused the icon to be displayed below the input field and i wanted it to be displayed next to the text. Below is the code for one of my input fields.

I have multiple date fields i want to use the datepicker with. The issues i am having are; 1. when i click on the icon to display the datepicker, the picker is displayed, but it displays on the wrong icon. No matter what icon i click on it always gets displayed on only one and it is always the same one. Each field has its own unique name and id the only thing that each field shares is a class. I can't seem to figure out how to fix this. My other issue is that when i click on the icon the page scrolls to the top, so if i am clicking on a picker icon at the bottom of the screen it scrolls the screen to the top.
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 following problem: When the user on my website presses a image link, I prevent the default behaviour, and toggle some table rows (show or hide them, depending on the the image src (closed.gif / opened.gif)). Since I got a lot of rows I run over and toggle, the function takes some time to process and the browser "hangs" in the meanwhile. Due to this I want to show the user that the operation is still in progress and want to change the image of the link to a load spinner until it is finished. So I thought that I just have to change the src URL of the image in advance and then start the function, but jQuery is ignoring the line and I don't know why? Here is the code I am using:
$("a[name='changeDisplayModeAll']").click(function(e) { e.preventDefault(); var newStatus; var imageSrc = $("img[name='imageChange']").attr('src');
The only thing I am not able to see the loading gif functionality.. But as I said..
If I put an alert message in function showLoadingImg() or the make the red line uncomment (making the line a error), Then I am getting the loading gif functionality work..
But, all next functions fail due to above red lined error (if its uncommented).
I want to do exactly as mentioned on the title. You can consider this like surfing pages in traffic exchangers or PTCs. The functionality is exactly like those, though it is not for those.
This is what I have now.
Code HTML4Strict:
Currently, it shows "Page has been loaded" before even showing the "Please wait" part.
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.
Is it possible to use AJAX to call a PHP function. I know you can request a PHP page but I would like to call a PHP function and display the return using AJAX .
I was wondering if it was possible to call a specific PHP function using AJAX instead of calling a whole page. An example:
function MakeRequest() { var xmlHttp = getXMLHTTP(); xmlHttp.onreadystatechange = function() { if(xmlHttp.readyState == 4
[Code]...
I already have a PHP function (in a class) that retrieves the provinces/states from the database based on the country. I was wondering if it was possible to call this function instead of having to make a new file (in this case FindProvinces.php) that calls the function.
like theres two pages.page one calls page two and displays the output of page 2 on page 1 via ajax.now can i click on page 2's output(on page one) and have it execute another javascript function to call AJAX(a third page)
Code: function getaccountcurncy2(){ var entity = $("#sourceacctno").val(); //alert(entity);
[Code]...
I need to execute the function getexchrate() ONLY after the ajax call is complete. All my previous attemps executes the function before the ajax call is completed. getexchrate() depends on the outcome of the ajax call.
I'd like to have basically rotating images on my page but I'd like to pull them from a database. how to set an image rotation like every 10 seconds but have it call a function which will use AJAX to be able to pull the images from the database?
