Hi all,
I googled and read this group but could not find any solution to my
problem.
I have a page to download big excel files that we 'build' on the
server side. When a user click on the link to download, he has no clue
that something is going on (and it can take some time). Indeed if the
cursor is over some text or some special parts of the page it will not
be set to the 'progress' type.
Therefore I thought I could just set the cursor type to 'progress'
with javascript when the user click and to set it back to default when
the download is complete. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be possible
to know when a download is complete. Could you confirm that ? or does
anybody know a solution ?
Then, how should I do ?
some artificial AJAX call to have the possibility to have a callback
function ?
any other idea ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
