Possible to inject a 'Loading icon' for certain pages?
Hi there,
We've recently hit a scenario whereby a lot of our application reports are taking a long time to render.
Ideally, I dont want any user to be sat with a blank page for more than 10-15 seconds, which for the rest of the application is perfectly do-able... Any more than that and the F5 returns a 'sorry, something's gone wrong page'...
However for reports we know that they're likely to take more than 10-15 seconds... Ideally, I'd get the developers to rewrite the app such that it returns a 'loading icon' when running the reports... However they've indicated that that's likely to take a few months to come to fruition...
So I thought to myself, what if I could use an iRule to inject the relevant code and images, and then reload the page when the server responds...
Before I start down this path, does this sound feasible? Anybody done anything similar that I can use for a starter?
Cheers in advance for any replies.
Gavin
