Ken, I'll respond in mor= e detail later today if others don't help you before then, but in the b= roadest sense, you want to probably use jquery since it has stuff like this= built right in and there are metric buttloads of plugins and such for ajax= spinners.

But that said, if this is a one-off thing you= could always do a quick & dirty fake-out thing involving an animated .= gif spinner/progress bar image being displayed while [waitforfile] waits fo= r some file triggered by the conclusion of the CC transaction. I'm sure= you get the idea...

takes a while because the code runs a credit card transaction at
his processor and waits for their response.

Since I'm not up on AJAX (and I could not find any examples on
webdna.us or in my own c= ode library) I was wondering if anyone
here has done something similar and might share their code with me
so I can get a jump-start on this project.
