2 possible options I can see.. either have a 2nd browser widget with that page in it, and enable/disable hide/show or just move it out of the screenrect.. Though it sounds like all you're doing is putting an animated gif that you want to show during page load. Can't you just pop it into an image object, and then overlay it however you like on top of the browser widget. hide/show/enable/disable as needed?
