Showing a message while loading

Applications Grid / Reports
#1

I have a grid which loads some Master/Detail tables, media etc. It takes from 1-5 sec to open it in the browser.
When the user click a magnifying glass on the record to see details or on the link (to the details form) it takes time and I want to display a message like: “loading - please wait …”

I really wish to see more events (i.e OnClick) so we can have more hooks to insert the code
What’s the best method/Event to do this ?

I guess: create a div in your header and apply the message to it through javascript? Should work, but I don’t have a sample.

i can use modal popup window or whatever but the question is where to put the code, which embed ?
there ia no like OnClick embed for the details icon
