I'd like to know if there is a way to display

1. <hardware> {monitor}.

	2. <language> A vector of pointers to {activation records}.
	The Nth element points to the activation record containing
	variables declared at {lexical depth} N.  This allows faster
	access to variables from outer {scopes} than the alternative
	of linked activation records (but most variable accesses are
	either local or global or occasionally to the immediately
	enclosing scope).  Displays were used in some {ALGOL}
	implementations.

a progressbar while
loading a page.
(We developped our application

1. {application program}.

	2. {function application}.

in Caché (intersystems), some functions need
some time to
calculate&display data, in the mean time I do not want users to stare at an
internet explorer in whitch nothing happens, I want them to see that
something is happening and even better, the status of loading.)

I saw on the internet that JAVAscript won't work because it has no insight
to the bytes
received. (But ok, I can do without that information.)
I have tried to use an animated gif, (same gif you see when starting windows
for example), or just the text

1. Executable code, especially a "pure code" portion shared
	between multiple instances of a program running in a
	{multitasking} {operating system}.

	Compare {English}.

	2. Textual material in the mainstream sense; data in ordinary
	{ASCII} or {EBCDIC} representation (see {flat ASCII}).  "Those
	are text files; you can review them using the editor."

	These two contradictory senses confuse hackers too.

: "please wait...", but then the problem is
that although I can hide and show it through JAVAscript, it won't be shown
before the page is completely loaded. In a script I show the text: please
wait. In the body I use the onload-event

1. <software> An occurrence or happening of significance to a
	task or program, such as the completion of an asynchronous
	input/output operation.  A task may wait for an event or any
	of a set of events or it may (request to) receive asynchronous
	notification (a {signal} or {interrupt}) that the event has
	occurred.

	See also {event-driven}.

	2. <data> A transaction or other activity that affects the
	records in a file.

to hide the text but that wont work
because the script won't be executed before the onload event is trigger

<database> An action causing the automatic invocation of a
	procedure, for instance to preserve {referential integrity}.
	A triggers goes into effect when a user attempts to modify
	data with an insert, delete, or update command.  A trigger can
	instruct the system to take any number of actions when a
	specified change is attempted.  By preventing incorrect,
	unauthorized, or inconsistent changes to data, triggers help
	maintain the integrity of the database.

I can not find a way to trigger an onbeforeload-event. (For the script that
displays Please wait)

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Simon

"Simon" <simon1978@xxxxxxxxxxx> a écrit dans le message

In {object-oriented programming} sending a message to an
	{object} (to invoke a {method}) is equivalent to calling a
	{procedure} in traditional programming languages, except that
	the actual code executed may only be selected at run time
	depending on the {class} of the object.  Thus, in response to
	the message "drawSelf", the method code invoked would be
	different if the target object were a circle or a square.
