This was one of those things that was too easy to get, so I thought I would post it here and save the next person some grief
In your master template, put this in your code behind:
At the top of the page, add 'Imports System.Threading to accomodate the Thread.Sleep
Now, on the HTML source for the Master Template page, go to the Body line and add
Don't forget the semicolon or it won't work
Now this image pops up as pages load and, when the page is DONE loading, it executes the Javascript 'HideWait' function and kills the image. You don't have to do anything to any of the other pages
In your master template, put this in your code behind:
Code:
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
If Not Page.IsPostBack Then
'create an image here - this can be any img that already exists on the site
Response.Write("<img id='img1' src ='images/red-x.gif' Style='left: 500px; position: absolute; top: 200px' />")
Response.Write("<script language=javascript>;")
Response.Write("var dots = 0;")
Response.Write("var dotmax = 10;")
Response.Write("function ShowWait(){")
Response.Write("}")
Response.Write("function StartShowWait(){")
Response.Write("var output;")
Response.Write("output=document.getElementById('img1');")
Response.Write("output.style.visibility='visible';")
Response.Write("window.setInterval('ShowWait()',1000);")
Response.Write("}")
Response.Write("function HideWait(){")
Response.Write("var output;")
Response.Write("output=document.getElementById('img1');")
Response.Write("output.style.visibility = 'hidden';")
Response.Write("window.clearInterval();")
Response.Write("}")
Response.Write("StartShowWait();</script>")
Response.Flush()
Thread.Sleep(10000)
End If
End Sub
