Displaying a Popup Progress Indicator in IE on button click
Has anyone succeeded in being able to display a progress indicator in a "floating" div on IE?
The problem is when you run a script from an onclick event (a form button) and the script is creating other records so can take several seconds, the page simply looks frozen so I want to display a progress indicator and update the message.
