[Seaside] How to insert a 'Searching...' message?

[Yoel Jacobsen]

It does not work, and if it did I wouldn't understand how. I need to refer to the 'onclick' method of  the submit button. How can I set the JavaScript script for a specific  method of a specific widget?

Which widget's 'onclick' action is referred by "html attributes at: 'onclick'"?

Thanks,
  Yoel
