Overlay Spinner for External Pages?

Posted: Jun 18, 2010

The external page I'm loading into overlay can be kinda slow. Is there any way to display a spinner in the overlay DIV until the external page renders? For example:

- User clicks button
- Overlay displays immediately ... but w/ a spinner in the main content area.
- Spinner disappears when external page renders

Thanks.

Hi bitman,

you can do this by for instance putting something like this in the onBeforeLoad event:

$(".apple_overlay .contentWrap").html("<img alt="Spinner" src="/images/spinner.gif" />");

like this:

onBeforeLoad: function() {
 $(".apple_overlay .contentWrap").html("<img alt="Spinner" src="/images/spinner.gif" />");
 var wrap = this.getOverlay().find(".contentWrap");
 wrap.load(this.getTrigger().attr("href"));
 }
