Display Message while code runs.

[David Allison]

I have written a Login page which initializes a session. I am trying to display a message to the user letting them know that the session is intializing. I would ideally like to load a page that displays while the query is running. Any ideas on how to accomplish this? I have tried to add webforms and user their page load events to launch my code but that does not work.

The browser display to the user would not appear until all of the queries
have finished.

You may, however, depending on the nature of your query, divide the query to
several shorter steps, each executing simultaneously using asynchronous
programming

This is simplest solution I've seen:
