pleaseWait

NAME

x6dialogs.pleaseWait

FUNCTION

The Javascript method x6dialogs.pleaseWait is not, strictly speaking, a dialog, because it does not require any user feedback, and in fact does not even allow it.

When you call x6dialogs.pleaseWait, a modal box pops up that is stylistically consistent with the overall template and which has an animated gif and the message "Please Wait".

Use this method when you are executing a long-running (greater than 2-3 seconds) process and you must let the user know the program is working on something.

The user cannot clear this display. You must clear it yourself when work has been completed by calling x6dialogs.clear().

EXAMPLE

Here is a usage example:

         x6dialogs.pleaseWait();
         for(var x in rowsToSave()) {
            // some actions to save to server
         }
         x6dialogs.clear();
