I will try experimenting with that. But my situation is:
A page with multiple php file includes. The page loads on to the includes, loads them and continues to load the includes below. I want to display some sort of text while the include still isn´t loaded. Likewise i would like to display some sort of loading message while a database search is active. - Daniel > -----Original Message----- > From: _lallous [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: den 25 oktober 2001 13:14 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [PHP] Re: Loading message > > > the page won't ever showup unless the webserver finishes > processing the PHP > file, therefore the "Loading ..." will appear while the page is > waiting for > its component to finish loading (images, javascripts, flash files, ....) > > therefore what you're asking for has a javascript solution: > > 1)make a <div> with width and height about 1000 and absolute position w/ > z-index=1000 > 2)add a body.onload event so that when the pages loads you hide > that layer. > 3)that layer can hold any text or tags as you want like: "Please wait...." > > this division's code: > <div id='loadinglayer' > style='left:0;top:0;width:1000;height:1000;position:absolute;z-ind ex:1000;ba > ckground:black'>Please wait....</div> > > <body onload='hidelayer()'> > </body> > > <script> > function hidelayer() > { > if(document.all) > document.all['loadinglayer'].style.visibility="hidden"; > else > document.layers['loadinglayer'].visibility="hide"; > } > </script> > > hope that helps > "Daniel alsén" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message > [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > > Hi, > > > > is there a easy way in php to display text like "Loading..." while > elements > > on a page is being loaded from the server? > > > > Regards > > # Daniel Alsén | www.mindbash.com # > > # [EMAIL PROTECTED] | +46 704 86 14 92 # > > # ICQ: 63006462 | # > > > > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
