I need to show message "Please wait Processing" on click of Submit button using a hidden DOM element which contains the message and make it visible, but the message is not showing.
My html for the form and my validate function are given below.
<form name="siteSearchForm" method=post action="<%=request.getContextPath()%>/servlet/visibilityController" onsubmit="javascript:return validate();on_load()">
<td align="center" width="10%"><input type=submit name="siteSearchSubmit" value="SUBMIT" > <input type="RESET" name="clearTN" value="RESET"></td>
</form>
I tried the below code by calling on_load
on form tag during onsubmit
but it is not showing message
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function on_load(){
var y = document.getElementById("txtHiddenUname");
y.type= "text";
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="hidden" id="txtHiddenUname" value="invalid input" />
</body>
