How can I add a please wait page while doing heavy db transactions

I have a page that the client hits the run test button and there is an intense amount of stored procedures that run - I want to be able to redirect or display an ani gif that say's please wait with a moving hour glass so they don't keep hitting the run test button and they know something is happening - I looked around the web but couldn't find any working code... Anyone that can help would be a blessing...

thanks
rich

    I know there has to be someone out there that has sample code on this - Everything I find is so complex - I want to keep it simple... Someone please help out if you have something...

    thanks

    Thanks for the reply - I think were headed in the right direction however based on that article I don't think thats going to work for me. I need to initiate the gif before the timeout - this is after a process times out.

    thanks

    Do better than a wait page, show progess...

    Thank you for the sample of your control it looks great however I really wanted something simple just to display the animated gif that we designed. DO you have something like that in vb .net for asp .net

    This may be what you are looking for   The code to do this seems a bit complex though...

    Most implementations seem to use timer, or threadpool

    This is an asp.net web page calling another asp .net or post back to itself -- either way I can not get it working
