The process of uploading a file can be lengthy, and can appear "stuck" for
the user if no appropriate feedback is provided. Such a feedback is given
when uploading photos with the Upload_Photos element (backed up by
''Move_Photos_to_Storage.py'') since it uses a Flash based plugin
([http://www.uploadify.com/ Uploadify]) to upload the file, allowing the
display a progress bar. However no feedback is provided with the standard
file upload interface (''websubmit_managedocfile.py'')
A basic solution would be to display a spinning wheel icon as soon as a
the upload button is pressed (as done in BibEdit, using the JQuery UI icon
