Hi,

I am slowly but surely going through all my Smart-Thinker modules and testing each control with PartialRendering enabled.

One thing I noticed is that while it works great on most views there is no way of showing the user that an AJAX request is being made - usually you get the nice little "Processing" AJAXY icon.

I have not looked into the AJAX toolkit enough to know, but is there a way of generically displaying a "wait" icon while these requests occur?  On PokerDIY  it takes a little while (for example and the user may attempt to do something else if they are not aware that something is happening). Is this something that has to be implemented at code level or can it be handled generically in the core DNN code with the UpdatePanel wrapper?

Personally I think it could be very intersting/useful to include an update progress control within each update panel from the core.

There would be some logistical issues that they would need to deal with, like giving users the ability to specify what was provided as "in progress" test as well as the "show after" property.  But It could be done on the core level.

It would be added at the top of the module, and it could be styled via CSS to accomplish many potential effects.
