I often use fake progress bars if I don't have progress information or don't want to do nasty things to obtain the information. To do so I calculate the mean duration of a given task and store it in local storage. Then I use the mean duration to animate the progress bar. To handle the rare case that a task takes much longer than usual I only animate the progress bar to 95% and then stay there until the task completes. Usually it works quite well for me. -- J. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "GWT Users" group.
