Hello all, I have this <form> and a submit button.
I then try the following inside my document ready: $("#btnSubmit").click(function() { $.blockUI({ theme: true, title: 'My title', message: '<p>My message...</p>', timeout: 8000 }); return true; }); Unfortunately the form is being submitted and completely disregards the timout attribut I've set. So I'm assuming there isn't a way to make blockUI synchronous and really wait the timeout time and then, submit the form. The reason I'm asking is because I'm having the exact same scenario as this post: http://osdir.com/ml/jQuery/2009-02/msg02094.html I'm using both IE and FF In a nutshell, between the blockUI and the return true I make an ajax call. The time it takes varies a lot...it can be really quick like it can take 15 seconds... When the call is quick, the users barely has the time to view the blockUI and read what's inside...the form gets submitted but they are like..."What happened? What was written there? I didn't have enough time to read"... So to avoid, this, I always want a minimum of time for the blockUI to appear even if the ajax call is quick. As for what happens if the ajax call is lets say...15 seconds...well that's another story! I'd first like to know if this is even possible...to NOT make my form submit until it has reached the timeout attribute I've set inside the blockUI parameters. Thanks in advance Sincerely Vince
