Look at the mailing lists archive from november. There was discussion about progress bar component.

Hi, Can someone please advice me how handle a Action in Form which takes a long time to complete? In myfaces a user submits and a function in the backing bean is invoked. And the user will see the result page after that function is returned. My question is what if that function takes a long time to complete (e.g. 10 minutes). How can i indicate to user that everything is fine (e.g. display a 'processing page with % of completion' ), and forward him to a result page when things are done? Thank you.
