<P><FONT SIZE=2>You could use javascript to launch 'please wait' on the originator page followed by form post, the lightbox will then naturally disappear once callback completes and new page is rendered.<BR>

Hi Marco,<BR>
<BR>
today I've finished solving exactly that.<BR>
I've used a periodical updater on a component which changes its state while<BR>
progressing.<BR>
The state of this component dictates which feedback will be rendered to the UI.<BR>
Its nice because you can even set there server side validation result when it<BR>
wont validate. If validates fine some kind of be patience message is displayed<BR>
until state changes to done and it end up with some feedback about process<BR>
complete.<BR>
<BR>
Tip: you may be tempted to but manage yourself to don't use forks in callbacks<BR>
<BR>
Cheers,<BR>
<BR>
