This is because after showBusyIndicator is called (to show the working
message), importer.load(...) gets the result too soon before the web
page has a chance to re-render itself. Maybe you can do something like this:
function reloader () {
Exhibit.UI.showBusyIndicator();
window.setTimeout(
function() {
window.database.removeAllStatements();
var importer = Exhibit.importers["application/json"];
importer.load(
"GetActiveCalls.aspx",
window.database,
function () {Exhibit.UI.hideBusyIndicator();}
);
},
100 // milliseconds
);
}
