Well here's a small suggestion. Set the timeout of the form to be extremely high so that the Flex Engine doesn't recompile it on ever request... that should definitely help.
As for the running clock, I've never had to force it to show while loading, it simply has just always been there when I needed it. =] Cheers, !k -----Original Message----- From: John Maier [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, February 10, 2007 5:27 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Flash Form Waiting Animation No, the page does not show a running clock.
