title: Loading gif image is not showing in IE and chrome
body: <p>I am using JQuery ajax call for sending synchronized call to server and want to display a loading image for that time.</p>
  
  <p>But loading image is visible in Firefox but not in IE and chrome. When i debug, i found that in IE, when we call java script, it stop showing changes in browser as it halts DOM and when the call is completed, it then shows all the changes. Since i shows the loading image on ajax call and remove it after completing the call, the IE doe not display any image.</p>
  
  <p>But when i use alert box,it shows the loading image in IE as it stop the thread until we response to it.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any method to stop java script execution for a millisecond such that IE execution halts and loading image is shown.</p>
  
  <p>I already tried ajaxSend, ajaxComplete, ajaxStart, ajaxStop of JQuery and timer event of java script, but does not get any solution.</p>
  
  <p>Any help is precious, thanks in advance.</p>
