Question

I have a file upload form on a site and i’d like to replace the form with the text “uploading…” whilst the file uploads. so far i have:

$( document ).ready(function(){
    $(form).submit(function(){
        $('#key').html("Uploading...");
    });
});

the submit part works because i got it to alert on submit and the .html part works because it will change the html when it’s not in the submit function. The form is in a div with the id of “key”.

Answer 1

<form id="someForm"></form>
<div id="key" style="display:none">Uploading...</div>

$( document ).ready(function(){
    $('#someForm').submit(function(){
        $('#key').show();
        $('#someForm').hide();
    });
});
