Hi there, I have an ASP.NET page that takes a long time to load due to the loading of multiple user controls. Is there a way where I can show a loading animation using jQuery while the page is loading?
Thanks.

You don't need jQuery.
You can simply add an <img> tag displaying an animated GIF.
You can find a suitable animated GIF at AJAXLoad.info.
simply insert a div as absolute position and style it as you want , when page is loaded hide it ..

<script type="text/javascript" src="jq.js"></script>
<style>
.boxMid{position:absolute; top:30%; left:40%; width:200px; height:200px; background-color:#fff;
               border:1px solid #333; display:block;}
#mybox{position:absolute; left:0; top:0; width:100%; height:100%; background-color:#666666; opacity:.8; display:block;filter:alpha(opacity=80);}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="mybox" >
    <div class="boxMid">
     Loading, please wait ...
    </div>
</div>
    <div id="loading">loading</div>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).load(function(){
        $('#mybox').fadeOut();
    });
    </script>
</body>
</html>
   $.ajaxSetup({   
      beforeSend:function(){   
         $("#loading").show();   
      },   
      complete:function(){   
         $("#loading").hide();   
   });   
This will change your global ajax settings to show/hide #loading object while a ajax is being processed.
