it should work the following way, put a ppr field with a cyclic refresh into a page... in the backend at the time of the triggering of the refresh measure your progress and adjust the css width of the t:div element accordingly (or set a progress text, to your liking) Since the t:div does not use any javascript this should work as expected. this is quite natural because you do not have to do some huge tricks in the backend, ppr panel backend binding to the panel if needed, div element backend binding to the element, and progress code, thats it basically. I have not tried this, but given my experiments with the tomahawk ppr control, it should work as expected as long as there is a command link in the page (the ppr control needs one command in the page due to a bug) Sorry to say that you have to use explicetly t:div because verbatim tags do not work with the ppr controls as of yet....
