[jQuery] Ajax capability question
Hi All,
I am posting to this group because of the number of members here.
My question is really about ajax and not specific to jQuery (however
if there is a specific jQuery solution please let me know).
My question is this:
Is it possible to send an ajax request to make an http request and not
receive a response until the page has completely finished processing?
I am trying to setup a dashboard to kick off data refreshes for cached
data in various Intranet applications. They can all be run via
URL's... what I want to happen is click a button, show the user a
message while the http request is running and then show a response
once the page is finished processing.
Normally, this process can take upwards of 30 seconds to a minute...
but for some reason when I run this via an ajax request it comes back
almost instantaneously.
I just seem to be getting back the status (200).
Any thoughts on this would be extremely appreciated.
Thanks,
John
