Question

I’m firing off two AJAX requests through jQuery on page load. They are GET requests.

In Chrome, I am finding that the page still indicates it is loading through cursor and status text in bottom left of the window until the AJAX requests have completed.

Ideally, I would like the status text and cursor to not be effected by the AJAX requests at all.

Does anyone know if there is a way to prevent this?

$.ajax({
        url:'/createsite/CheckDnsKey?site_id='+site_id+'&r='+Math.random(100000000),
        success:function(data){updateDomainDisplay(KEY_INFO_COMPLETE,data)},
        error:showDomainError
});             
$.ajax({
        url:'/createsite/CheckDnsKeyStatus?site_id='+site_id+'&r='+Math.random(100000000),
        success:function(data){updateDomainDisplay(STATUS_COMPLETE,data)},
        error:showDomainError
});

I don’t think that this is something you have control over. As far as your code is concerned I would improve it like this:

$.ajax({
    type: 'GET',
    url: '/createsite/CheckDnsKey',
    data: { site_id: site_id },
    cache: false,
    success: function(data) { 
        updateDomainDisplay(KEY_INFO_COMPLETE,data); 
    },
    error: showDomainError
});
