'Searching Database' modal window overlay PHP/MySQL Query

Post by facets »

This may have been asked before.. so apologise in advance!

I'm looking for some way to display a 'searching database' style Modal window once the user clicks submit from my form. does any one know of a good framework or example of this?

The search page in question reloads itself once the query is complete and displays a graph.

Any thoughts or pointers would be appreciated.

tia, Will./

PHP has no control over modal windows. If memory serves, very few browsers support them for pages to use.

While it requires Javascript, you could cover the screen with a DIV making everything loose click response.
