On Form Submit, Fade Out Screen And Display Animated "Loading" Gif Until Next Page?
Feb 3, 2011
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?
This might be a combo Javascript / CSS question I'm building a website, and I'm wanting to have small, approx 100px x 100px pop up display that has a "page loading" spinning gif. I also want the page to fade out while this image is displayed. For instance, someone submits a form that takes 3-4 seconds to load. Once they hit submit, the screen darkens, the new window comes into focus, center of screen, and it has some kind of rotating gif, basically a trigger 'on submit'..
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?
I have a basic page which has a PHP form. It creates a record and uploads a picture. When they user clicks submit, I need it to display a "loading" notice of some description. I was using this:
[Code]....
and then placed a div in the page but it shows the message right at the top of the screen. As the form is long, the user cannot see the message. I need to create some sort of notice so users know the form is being processed.
I am currently working on form which let the user submit a small (max 300 char) message.. Now I want the message to display on same page under the form, something like twitter.. I tried a lot using jquery but it is not working.
Can someone please give me idea where and how can I solve this?
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 am completely new to jQuery, and I don't even know how to approach or implement what I am trying to do.Before the home page of a site I've developed appears, I want the logo of the company to appear on the screen, then fade out to reveal the web page with full functionality.I also could do this be fading out the logo to reveal a static image of the home page which then could redirect to actual home page.
I am trying to use the jquery keydown event.I wan to fade in a div that is a form then when the user presses keycode 17 meaning control key this div and form will fade in at the center of the screen.here is the code I have:
This is in a php file and echoing the code. So the " " ignore it it's just saying to php that those are to be echoed as " " This code isn't working. I would press control key but no fade in occurs. I include this php file to all my websites webpages which are php files.
I have a site where the header, footer, menu and Google map remain present on most pages,but the copy in the main paragraph changes depending on which menu option is selected.The above is achieved using PHP includes and query strings.I'm using jQuery to 'fade in' the main body text when a page loads, and 'fade out' the text when a menu link is clicked on. It just looks nice, because all the stuff that is always present stays in place (I guess the browser caches it?) and just the main body text fades out and the new fades in.The thing is, the 'fade out' that is triggered by the 'click' event (on the menu link) tends to be interrupted by the browser moving on to the new page. I just want to the browser to stay for half a second so that the nice fade finishes properly. Ironically, when my connection is interrupted or the new page loads slowly, it looks at its best because the fade has time to finish
By luck I had somehow found a way to collect data with a form, perform calculations with JavaScript and display the form and calculated results on the same screen.
Now I can't figure out how to do that again. The only methods of reporting the calculation results seem to display a completely new screen/window.
I just want to collect some numeric input data with slider widgets or text boxes for an alternate method and display additional calculated results 'real time' as the slider is adjusted. If this can't be done, after a text box entry is made. Ideally the results would display without a 'submit' button click.
i am trying to build my form to submit without reloading the screen. I am using jquery and it inserts the data but it also reloads the screen and two database records get inserted. It appears that one is being inserted by jquery and the other is being inserted by the normal form submission. How do I remove/override the normal form submission? My html code is as follows:
I am php developer,[URL]... a fade in fade out effect (image + text) which is working very nice but Can i do this like with text on top(not on an image)and image below it like header : text below that an image
example <table> <tr><td> header for image</td></tr> <tr><td> image here</td></tr> </table>
Can you pls suggest any other script to display an html page or pages like this just the way i had defined above in fade in fade out ....
I'm having trouble displaying an animated loader.gif when submitting a form.
What i have is this function
And i have a div like :
My problem is that while it works fine on safari and chrome, in firefox, when the submit event is fired, tha animation on gif freezes. I've done a lot of serach and o can't fina a solution.
The form processor I'm using can take a few seconds to complete (and either take me to the thank-you page or back to the form with error messages). I'd like to change the "submit" button to a loading GIF. I'm using the following code but realize that the form (using ajaxSubmit) doesn't actually submit when I do this.
function pleaseWait() { var x = document.getElementById("submitdiv"); x.innerHTML = "Please Wait... <img src='/images/ajax-loader.gif' />"; }
I am working on getting my tumblr blog on my web site and there's a feature in the template that I would like to use on my site but after going through lots of sites offering tools, I couldn't find one the same.
this is my blog [URL] when hovering over a photo, you see the zoom button, clicking it makes the picture bigger and fades the background out.
Anyone know where I can get a script to do this? Has anyone used one of these? Do they automatically work on all images on the page without extra code on each image?
My problem is that when I submit my form,writePersonneSGBD.php seems to be quite well executed , because my record is created as wished in my database, but there is no way it returns anything (out) and display something in my div container. instead of that,and I really dont understand why, after the end of the function, index.php is executed again and so a new form is displayed again in the div "container"
i'm using the form validation plugin to validate my form [URL], works great. now i want to display a layer or a message after clicking the submit-button. unfortunatly i don't know ho i can do that
take a look at my js-code i'm currently using to validate my form:

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.
Is it possible to read a web page on some web site that contains a form. Then identify the fields in the forms. Then fills the fields with my data. and then submits the form as it submitted normally. I need to do this to automate for my final proyect , i need to fill many web pages remotly
I'm learning javascript, and was wondering if it was Possible to have buttons/links that you click, the whole page fades out, and then fade's in, with different stuff. here are my ideas for just changing the stuff
Text: 1. having a javascript src file to start, and then when the button is clicked, that is formatted to white, the text layer is moved down, and a new javascript file is loaded?
I am currently doing a photography site.I would like to do a 'portfolio' page, but would like to pre-load the images so that they appear on-screen faster.Do I need to connect code to <body onload>?
I am an asp.net developer and I wanted to display user popup (kind of) which freezes the screen so that user won't click anything else on the screen. There are some predefined controls in asp.net, but I wanted do this using Javascript.
I've run into a roadblock I just can't seem to get past. I'm developing a website for work (internal) and I have a lot of javascript calculations going on when someone enters data. What I want to do is to have a div apear when it begins calculating and goes away when it ends. I'm using:
// CSS code div.loading-invisible{ display: none; } div.loading-visible { display: block; ... various formatting here ... } // Javascript function calculate(evalForm) { document.getElementById("loading").className = "loading-visible"; [Code]...
It works great in firefox. The div display appropriately, calculates, then disappears when it's finished. However, in IE it seems to want to calculate everything before anything is displayed. I placed alerts in the code to be able to pause it mid way and it worked. But without alerts it just hangs while everything is being calculated and the code for the loading screen just seems to cancel itself out. I attempted to put some waits in the code such as:
Basically, i've got a very large website as the client wanted a fancy horizontally scrolling one. As such the images/javascript effects take a little while to load.Basically i'd want an animated gif to act as a loading image and then once the website has completed loading the whole page fades in (this includes all images, text, javascript functions etc etcI can do it when loading an image but am stuck with how to do it for say a whole website.
