I'm using the hourgass when I first enter validation function when submitt button is click. Javascript does alot of editing and if all passes I send data to server. The problem with the hourglass is that its taking at least 5 secs before it shows up , and thats after I click page. Is there away to show it immeditley ? Thanks

Normally it requires the user to move the cursor a bit and also you can not do loops that lock up the browser so it can not redraw the screen.
