My issue is that remote requests, especially those involving an external server, can take a second or two. It's nice to give the user an indication that something is happening, which is why a spinner isn't 'useless'. It would be great if someone could give me a push in the right direction.
Also, I noticed that even though the 'Check URL' field on my form (http://monovisiondesign.com/client/jquery/validate-url/form.php) is not required, it still performs a remote call and a label.checked is applied to the field when it's left empty. Am I doing something wrong or is there a way to prevent that?
