Changing the cursor in asp.net
- by Bob Avallone
I want to change the cursor to an hourglass in my asp.net application to let my users know that the process is running. I searched for an answer and was advised to use javascript as follows.
1) Add this javascript
function hourglass() {
document.body.style.cursor = "wait";
}
2) then in my code in the page load event:
btnImport.Attributes.Add("onclick", "javascript: hourglass();");
When btnImport is the button they click on
However this does not work. But if I add an alert to the hourglass function. it does work. Is there some way to get this to work without the alert.
Thanks in advance.
