We have a solution where we initially connects to an Oracle DB source if the users client variable doesn't exists (initial login). The check for this is done in application.cfm: <cfif Session.sSysOk is "FALSE"> <cfquery name="WebConfig" datasource="#session.sDbName#" cachedwithIn="#pCTime#"> blabla <cfset session.sSysOK = "true"> </cfif> Is it possible to notify the user of this loading with a popup or something else? <cf_loading> will not work as the page hasn't loaded yet, but if it's possible to open a window with the "please wait message" that will close when application.cfm has finished doing it's initial stuff??
