statistics.

Is there some way, that I can show user time bar or smething similar? That
he nows, that page is working.

Thank you,

Use a javascript-based progress bar, show the progress bar when user fires
the event (like button click), then hide the progress bar.

Or you can consider a flash-based progress bar.
 
actually you are not the only one wanting to create a progressbar for an
asp.net page, have a look at these pages:

http://javascript.internet.com/navigation/charging-link.html

But most do it using a Javascript based pageloader progressbar

To send me an email, replace the [NOSPAM] tag with @ sign.
 
That's one of the options, only if you know how long you have to wait. But if
you have no idea how long is the process is going to be, go for the WinXp
style of progress bar, which what I try to meant here:

I tried tis code example. I put his download file () into same folder and
added this to my page, but nothing displays.

what's missing ?



<script type="text/javascript" src="xp_progress.js">


<script type="text/javascript">
var bar1= createBar(320,15,'white',1,'black','green',85,7,3,'');
</script>
 
Hi TJS,

question 1, you miss a script tag in the first code "</script>"
question 2,
Where do you placed your code?

Suggestion of code placement
place this near the HTML header ( in the <HEAD> tag)
<script type="text/javascript" src="xp_progress.js"></script>

place this code exactly on the page location which you want it to show
<script type=text/javascript>
createBar(200,13,'white',1,'black','blue',85,7);
</script>

I advice that you code put it within a table , in the <td> tag, or in the
<Div> tag so that you could control its visibility.

Hope this helps

Thanks

I would like to see it running as a test for now, and there is some
progress.
I get the error message that "bA has no properties" and a display of an
empty white bar

my code is now:

<script language="javascript" src="xp_progress.js">

</script>

<script type="text/javascript">
var bar1=createBar(320,15,'white',1,'black','green',85,7,3,"");
</script>
 
I got it , the document .write needs a body tag

final example code is:

GREAT,
it still depends on how you want to make it work.
May be you could give me your working scenario so that I could help out.

ehm, let me see, I give you scenario, let says,
user click a button on the aspx page to fire the long process,
you need to show the progess bar.

first, you populate the progress bar into a <Div> and set it to invisible by
default.

then use this script to activate the bar

var showBar = document.getElementById("tdBar");
showBar.style.display = "";

Then, after the process is complete, you invisible the <div> again.

by the following codes

var showBar = document.getElementById("tdBar");
showBar.style.display = "NONE";

but I assume that you know how to call a javascript from the server code.

Hope this help.

I'm testing two types in here a text as well as the image progess bars. For
now only the texrt is working. I can;t get the image to work.
