Prevent user action

[hgfrey]

After the user presses the action button, processing takes place in the backend and a new page is then displayed. All the time I want to prevent the user from pressing another button and show him the progress (spiner for example).

Our current solution uses p:ajaxStatus which shows a dialog with spiner and ajax requests for the action. But this doesn't work properly because the spiner dialog is closed too early, giving the user the opportunity to press another button before the new page is created. In another place we use blockUi, but I can't display a spiner there.

Thank you for your help

@hgfrey are you sure. The AJAX should only stop displaying once the AJAX has returned in oncomplete which means its done. Can you put together a use case showing the issue? We do this at our client and have never had an issue...

Then the error is probably on our side. I need to investigate this a little more. Many thanks.
