Thank you for the answer! - I've been doing it in the following way, which doesn't seem so neat although it works:
var junk=document.getElementById("submitButtonText").innerHTML document.getElementById("submitButtonText").innerHTML = "Working..." // fetching the info from the server document.getElementById("submitButtonText").innerHTML = junk I'm sorry for not explaining myself more clearly. - I'm using emy <http://www.emy-library.org/>. The main.css <http://www.emy-library.org/emy/1.1/themes/emy/main.css> should contain everything necessary. I still don't seem to be able to get it to work (although it works here <http://www.emy-library.org/documentation/latest/assets/samples/getting-started-example-2.html#_first>). Furthermore I don't know how to make the loading image to work with a *button*. Should I just use "*my old*" way changing the button text?
