Progress area "image loading" for .img

[Brent]

Hello,

Is this possible please? I have a rather large jpg on my page, and I want a "spinner" to show while it loads. I tried dragging an image onto the progress area, but it doesn't work. It there a tutorial I can read please?

Hello Brent-

This is a unique scenario. You must have a REALLY big jpeg image! Telerik provides a Progress control (RadProgressArea/RadProgressManager), but it is designed for monitoring the status of long-running server-side processes. What you're looking for is a download progress indicator. Telerik doesn't have anything directly aimed at this sceanrio, but there are some good free scripts on the interwebs that help you achieve this:

http://www.webappers.com/progressBar/ (requires using the JS API to handle image download progress)

Hope that helps!
