Set the first resultshtml with the progress bar in it, to PUSH, so it
shows before the entire process is complete.
The best way for doing something like this, is to use ajax, so you
can make the calls from within a page, and have complete control.

Hi all,
I’m kinda racking my brain, on this thing and was wondering if you
guys had any idea why it might be acting this way.
The file is actually a signup form. Once a particular option is
selected, the program branches to an ‘Elseif’ branch displays
displays relevant information in the new form depending on the made
previously (think of it as a Tango equivalent of
Autotrader...select the Make, then select the model of the
car..same idea). After the user has submitted all of the
information, we validate the information to ensure our vendor isn’t
getting bogus information and then basically send the information
over to our client via an <@URL> followed by all the values.
While this process has actually been working fine, we’re finding
that some scripts take a long time to get a response. My idea was
to actually create a progress bar (not dynamic), just an animated
gif that displays as the information is being transmitted. Here is
what I’ve done so far:
I figured the easiest way to do this is to just set up a Results
HTML with the animated gif displayed there. We have two sections
that the information has to filter through. First is the actual
error checking, so I figured, that logically, it would make sense
to have it displayed there. The second condition puts the
information into our database and makes the <@URL> Call. I also
tried putting the progress bar that the very start of the
condition, but here’s a bit of a curiosity: The progress bar
displays along with the last results HTML page, not before. I find
this a little confusing. I’ve worked Tango for a while now, but
maybe I’m missing something pretty elementary?
Has anyone else encountered/attempted to solve such a problem?
Thanks in advance,
Kaustav
