jQuery Grid Plugin - jqGrid - Topic: Programtically show the "Loading" box http://www.trirand.com/blog/?page_id=393/help/programtically-show-the-loading-box Simple:Press Version 5.7.5.3 tony on Programtically show the "Loading" box http://www.trirand.com/blog/?page_id=393/help/programtically-show-the-loading-box#p12045 Help http://www.trirand.com/blog/?page_id=393/help/programtically-show-the-loading-box#p12045 Hello,

There is a way to do this, but if you use formedit module the indicator will not show (it will be behind the form). Also I suggest you to use the new ajax settings and construct your own indicator. See what is new in 3.6.

Regards

Tony

The element ID with 3.6 for me is 'load_gridledgertable'... yours is probably 'load_<nameoftable>'

New code below.

$(document).ready(function() {

$('#load_gridledgertable').ajaxStart(function(){$(this).show();}).ajaxStop(function(){$(this).hide();});

…other code…

}

I'm firing a line of code on document ready to trigger my loading indicator div's visibility. My element #loadingindicator is a div that has a gif and some text to provide the user with feedback. This is really great because it triggers every time I run an Ajax call, letting the user know to be patient.

Hope it helps. Code below.

$(document).ready(function() {

$('#loadingindicator').ajaxStart(function(){$(this).show();}).ajaxStop(function(){$(this).hide();});

...other code...

}

  1. User clicks a button which updates some data on the back end - (this is a slowish process),
  2. Once data is updated, a callback is fired which reloads the Grid data

Currently, the "Loading" box only shows at step 2 - I'd like to trigger it at step 1, to give the user some feedback.

I can't find a public method to achieve this - but maybe I'm missing something.

Anyone with a usggestion for how to achieve this?

Using v3.6
