Page Loading / File Uploading - Spinning GIF Pop Up / Screen Fade
Mar 26, 2010
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'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 a problem with uploading files. I need to save the html file below to my hard disk or USB drive so that I can again upload it and then continue to add some more data to the fields. Here are the codes:
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 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
I'm writing script using AJAX and PHP to upload files. I'm trying to create progress bar to show how many bytes have been already uploaded to server.
Can I get the total file size (using JS) before sending it to server or immediately after start sending it?
And how to obtain amount o bytes that have been already transfered to server using JS? I know how to do it in PHP (XMLHttpRequest to php file that counts temporary file size), but is it possible in JS?
I am uploading text file on html page, that text file lies on desktop and getting updated at every hour. I will keep my html page on server so how will it upload that text file from my desktop ? it is being generated by one cloud sensor .
I found a web site that when uploading a file that could show status info.
As the attached image showed.
It seems that it is using pure javascript + dom only. But I can't found that javascript support displaying transfer info, including file size, transfer rate, etc. How can I archvie the simliar effect.
In JSP / HTML, I want to restrict the size of file being uploaded.
If the size of file more than a specific size say 5MB, i want to give mesage to the user. I don't want to wait till the file gets uploaded to server and then validate the file size. I need client side validation. Can it be done using scripting language or any other way?
I need a solution for this in Internet Explorer. There is already a solution I got using ActiveX control:
But ActiveX controls not allowed in our application. Is there any alternative way for this?
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?
I have an ajax function which passes form field values to a PHP script which in turn saves the data to my database. all works great.
I now need to add a file input to my form and pass the file upload ot the same PHP script.
I have read an article [url] which explains how to do this but this would suggest it is a completely separate function.
My question is, is there anyway I can expand my existing function (below) to inlude the file upload process to save having 2 functions doing the same process?
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'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 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'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:
Wantto import data from excel to SQL server from a web page, but wonder whether it is possible to do it without uploading the excel file from client's machine to server first.
I'm not sure is this is a CSS issue or one that can be solved with JavaScript, but I'm having a problem with this page URL...where the text on the four flyer images aren't being positioned correctly upon the uploading of the page. However, when you refresh again, it positions correctly. At first I thought this was a caching issue on my computer, but it did the same thing on someone else's.I'm a perfectionist (as you all are as well ) and I don't like things moving around or being out of position.If it doesn't happen on your computer when you first upload it, try it again because it's an on and off thing.
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.
URL...If you need to let the user know something is happening in the background, this is the easiest way.It handles creation,positioning, masking/blocking stuff behind, and even "pulsing" the loading message with a few simple options.Of course, there's more than a few options.Everything is configurable and extensible.It's even easy to create your own pulsing/spinning/throbbing effects, and it can display text (default),images or any element you like with ease and simplicity.It works page-wide with a "static" call:[code]or per-element, with chaining and all:$('#foo').loading({ align:'center' })The best way to start seeing what can be done and how to use it is to play with the demo:URL...
