jquery-patience

Status

• (27/11/2011) Not usable for now, the plugin it's in development.
• (28/11/2011) Yes! Now you can use it!

Introduction

I was searching a jQuery plugin to show a "loading" div for ajax calls, and I didn't found anything. So after that, I decided to create this plugin.

It works out-of-the-box, this means that you don't need to add new stylesheets to the HTML, or add strange configurations.

Requirements

• You must use jQuery (lastest, better)

• Only works with ajax calls

How to use

It's simple!, add the plugin to the HTML, and in the HEAD section, add this: <meta name="patience" content="true">

And that's it!

Anyway, you can customize the loading div, instead of add the meta "patience", call $.patience with some options like:

• loading_image: path of the loading icon
• message: message that will be shown inside the div, something like "Loading..." or "Wait please..."
• height: height of the div
• width: width of the div

Or if you want to use your own div:

• div_loading: name of the div that you created by your own to be shown.

e.g.: $.patience({message: "Wait please!",height:200,width:200});
