Most of my connections are handled through WCF so there is a built in RequestTimeout. That said, it's easily solved by putting a "cancel" button on the popup if it's a problem. I've never really had a problem with it unless the wheels totally come off and I doubt there are any solutions that work if that's the case.
There is also the UpdateProgressPanel but I'm not sure that exists outside .net. This is exactly It's designed for, I think it's more clumsy they modalpopups though and you'd potentially have the same issue. -----Original Message----- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Tony Gravagno Sent: Wednesday, May 02, 2012 3:19 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: Re: [U2] Show processing to user via icons > From: Holt, Jake > ModalPopups are, in my opinion, the cleanest solution since they lock > the page from interaction by default... Modal popups will lock the user on the popup and if the Ajax connection doesn't come back (locked READU, dead connection, license blocking, etc) you're going to have a very unhappy user because they can't get out of the trap. Maybe I missed something to your approach as you've obviously had some success?
