Is there any way to make a JSP loading screen for pages that take a long
time to load?

For example, I have a JSP page that returns many rows from a database
via JDBC.
While it's fetching the rows it takes a while for the page to load.
During that time I'd like to have the page display a message saying
"Please wait while the page loads".

I tried to do something with JavaScript that displays a message Body
onLoad and then it goes away when  the page finishes loading, but it
didn't work.

Any ideas on a way I could do this with JSP?
Maybe something with the buffer?

Thank you!
