[FX.php List] [ off ] Quick JQuery question

[Bob Patin]

Dale, that does help... I'll have to keep that for when a process takes a while to load.

The one I needed it for happens pretty quickly, and I realized that, since PHP processes first, I simply put a JQuery call at the bottom of my processing page, so that after the processing is done it calls the parent page into which the results are displayed...

Thanks, and thanks to the others who replied; all good info, time to dig a little and figure out some new ways to do things.
