    Page loading.... Script where to place ?

    Hi there,

    Question, i got the script running perfectly, now i wan't to put a "page loading" message between the searchbox and the resultpage ( after clicking on the searchbutton ), where should i place the code for this ?

    A sample script is found here : http://javascript.internet.com/page-...load-page.html

    I tried to put it into the default header template, but it won't work.

    Anyone ?

    You have to put it in your header.

    You need to remove the header tag code from your default template and then place a new text header, for example <html><head>javascript</head>...

    I didn't really look at the code.

    This isn't going to work because of how the script handles templates. Namely, it does:

    1. Process user input.
    2. Execute Whois script based on (1).
    3. Place output into variable.
    4. Output variable to browser.

    In other words nothing is actually displayed until all execution is finished.

    The only way you could possibly get anything displayed prior to EP-Dev Whois doing searches of whois servers would be to include the EP-Dev Whois script in another file that contains code to display "Loading" before the page is loaded BEFORE the code that includes the EP-Dev Whois script.

    That is alot of work and isn't worth it. If your pages are taking forever to load then you are likely querying too many servers at one time (for extra domains, etc).

    This is the very reason for why the EP-Dev Whois script provides the ability to cache results and requests. By enabling caching, at least you can be assured that the same query will not be processed twice within a given time and therefore the script will speed up after the initial request.
