I'm having a problem with what I thought would be a very simple task. I'm developing a browser based app in Dashcode. When the user clicks a row in a list I want to replace the small arrow image with an activity indicator to show the request is in process. The logical approach, I thought, was to add code in the row's handler function that set the arrow display style to none and the indicator display style to an empty string. Unfortunately that doesn't seem to work. Well, it does but too late to do any good. After the user clicks the row it sits in the highlighted state while the request completes and then right before it transitions to the next screen the arrow disappears and the indictor shows. I've also tried circumventing the handler function by adding my own call back action. Same results.
It strikes me odd that such a fundamental piece of the user experience isn't better supported by Dashcode. So I guess I have two questions: 1. Is there a better method for dealing with activity indicators? 2. Should I be using a different method to show and hide elements in the UI? I've tried the display and visibility properties and also tried creating a new element in code and tacking it on to the row programmatically (similar to the the way row highlighting works). --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "iPhoneWebDev" group.
