[How Do I:] Use the ASP.NET AJAX UpdateProgress Control?

REALLY AMAZING..!!

Nice one..It's quick to implement..

Thanks

But how to we know how much time to responsed the user request by server  means normal request it will take 3 sec for suppose database reqest it will take more time how we will identify

Thank You for your great article. But I have a doubt. In your example to display progress image, You have used sleep method. But I don't want use sleep method. In some situtaion we don't exact time. at this time how to implement updateprogress.

jmhemadri,

You don't need to know the exact time. He uses sleep in this example to 'simulate' server load time. In a real case scenario you do not need to do anything. Just enter your code as your normally would. Any 'loading' time the user experiences will trigger the update progress control and display whatever image or text you have placed inside the control automatically. Once the loading has finished the progress control will automatically stop showing the text or image.

Hope that makes sense lol.

Is there some easy way to let the updateprogress-image (or whatever) replace the item which is being updated?

it was a good one to watch.

Thanks.

Is there any way that the update process panel can trigger one object to become hidden?

Cheers

is there any way to make the cursor busy too?

Very good tutorial.....thanks

thanksssssss alot

Hi Joe,

I am wondering when you could reach me.

I am having a Master Page and a Child Page that have many

Asynchronous Post-back controls. ( Buttons, Textboxs, GridViews and so on)

So, i need to implement Ajax Progress to each and every Post-back control. In that user may Visualize which control is in Progress ( in Post back mode) and so on.

So in this way My page may have many Postback control user may triggers the event and showing each and evry control is in Progress ( in Post back mode).

This is great if you could provide me a working sample.

Thank you any way.

ZeroCool.

and that is it =)

here is a good site with gif images http://www.ajaxload.info/

This is great stuff but what do I do if I have a long running process that runs multiple web services?  I'm creating an application that retrieves a list of keys from a data warehouse, connects to Documentum to extract tif files of scanned documents and the files Documentum indexes, and writes the indexes and a link to excel so that the extract can be burned to a DVD (for portability, the DVD is provided to a vendor).

I want to be able to have the messages change or get stacked, like this:

Extracting part numbers...

Retrieving document images...

Creating Excel file...

Actually,regarding the prior question, I have a solution but it may be a bit of a kludge. I say "kludge" because it would mean my first call would need to store the part numbers retrieved in an XML file for use in the next call.  I can use your example the example of the persistent connection that modifies the innerHTML of a DIV (w/o the update panel).   I could set up a counter variable.  Each time I call the service I could pass in an argument that is the value of the counter variable (as a step) and the service would complete the step passed in.  I could then pass that step back into the onComplete event handler (as the Data parm) and add to the message displayed to the user based on that parm.  Does this seem a workable (and well designed) approach?

good work, thanks man

Really good, but while i tried in my system , UpdateProgress is not showing image , why?
