I think I found my solution, in my controlling function when I send the
response.js for the reload, I'm doing it like this now:
spinner=CENTER(IMG(_src=URL(request.application,'static',
'images/ajax_loader_blue_256.gif')))
response.js =
"jQuery('#stackList').html('{0}');jQuery('#stackList').get(0).reload()".
format(spinner)
So instead of just sending the div a reload, I'm using a JQUERY call to
replace the DIV with a CENTER IMG of my spinner.
It seems to work, can anyone think why this is a bad idea?
