Please Wait Script

Thanks for the reply Dan, I was just about to post myself to say that I had found a solution, a simple little script that works real well. The only thing I can't seem to do with it is add more than one line of text without it leaving a huge gap between the two lines, but that's not the end of the world.

This script puts a please waiting on top of the existing submit page and it does not disappear until the next page is ready to be displayed, which also helps by not allowing them access to the submit button

Here's the code, I'm sure somebody else will also find this valuable:

<script type="text/javascript">
var ray={
ajax:function(st)
    {
        this.show('load');
    },
show:function(el)
    {
        this.getID(el).style.display='';
    },
getID:function(el)
    {
        return document.getElementById(el);
    }
}
</script>

<style type="text/css">
#load{
position:absolute;
z-index:1;
border:13px double #000000;
background:#ff8400;
width:700px;
height:300px;
margin-top:-150px;
margin-left:-150px;
top:50%;
left:35%;
text-align:center;
line-height:300px;
font-family:"Trebuchet MS", verdana, arial,tahoma;
font-size:18pt;
color:ffffff;
}
</style>

<div id="load" style="display:none;">Processing... Please wait. May take up to 30 seconds</div>

You then just have to make sure you have ONSUBMIT in the form

<form action="YOUR NEXT PAGE.cfm" method="post" onsubmit="return ray.ajax()">
