Load ajax data NOT in a div or other element
<p>first of all, sorry for my bad english, I speak spanish.
Well, I need some help in this case:</p>

<p>I made a microsoft excel POI report using java, this report is in a servlet that I call when do a clic in a href, por example:</p>

<pre><code>&lt;a href="ServeletReport"&gt;Report&lt;/a&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>Until here, all ok, but I need to call this report using an event (it could be .load()) from jQuery, but this event only works assigning the data result to a div or other element. I not need assign the result to any element because my report is generated and open through in excel, if I assign it to a div, in this div appears rare simbols.</p>

<p>I need too add a loading imagen until my report is ready and opened.</p>

<p>I have a bad code, please I need some help.</p>

<pre><code>$("#mylink").click(function(){
    $("#contenidoo").empty().html('&lt;img src="images/loading-icon.gif"/&gt;');
    $("#result").load("ServletReport");
});
</code></pre>

<p>I not need to put the result in a div $("#result"), I dont need to put the result in any place, I want to do clic and wait until my report is generated but viewing the loading image.</p>
