Hello!  
Is it possible to have a spinner in form\_tag?

like:

\<% form\_tag :action=\> ‘list’, do  
:loading=\>“Element.show(‘spinner’);”,  
:complete=\>“Element.hide(‘spinner’);” %\>

…  
…  
\<% end %\>

If not how could I do it?  
Thank you!

Eva…

I think you can implement spinner on Ajax requests only. So you are  
calling form via Ajax request you can make spinner work.
