[OpenLayers-Dev] A small loadingPanel

[Richard Duivenvoorde]

Hi Alessio,

I've tried something like that also, using the loadend and loadstart 
event for a slow WM.Untiled layer coming out of my database.
One of my problems was that it always looks perfect in Firefox, is 
harder to get right in IE7, and I still have problems with IE6: 
something with the opacity/visibility of the div holding the 
'loading'-image.
Looking at your example in IE7 (on my WinXP) shows (I think) the same 
problem: while loading the (almost as big as the map div) div holding 
the image partially hides the map.

I'm very much interested though in functionality like this, and am 
looking forward to inclusion of such in future releases :-)

And if someone has a 100% working concept: please add it to the examples?
