I have a form created in my controller and passed by dictionary to my view. When the submit is clicked for the form, I need to open a modal window (showing a generic progress indicator) while python is processing some loops. I don't need to do any callbacks with the progress, I'm just showing a generic gif.
Anyone have a good method for opening a modal window in the view on submit when the form has been created in the controller? Or can I just handle that in the controller as well and pass it to the view? I'm able to accomplish this by creating the form and modal in the view, but I'd prefer to keep the form in the controller and call the modal on_accept from the view. D.P.
