One way to do this is to add an overlay to your page. <div id="overlay"></div>
#overlay { position: static; top: 0; right: 0; bottom: 0; left: 0; background: url(spinner.gif) rgba(0,0,0,0.7); z-index: 1000; } document.observe('dom:loaded',function(){ $('overlay).hide();}); Then slave the show/hide to your Ajax methods, or use the technique outlined in the AjaxResponders docs to have one listener for all Ajax events: http://api.prototypejs.org/ajax/Ajax/Responders/ Walter On May 8, 2012, at 10:54 AM, Phil Petree wrote: > Lets say I have this div imbedded in my page: > <div id='systemWorking'><img src='spinner.gif'>Saving...</div> > > And I have a list with 1000 entries and the user has scrolled down mid way... > if I unhide the spinner using this: > document.getElementById('inProgress').style.display = 'inline'; > > It shows but it shows in the location where it's imbedded in the page (top, > bottom etc.) but not necessarily viewable to the user.
