It seems UpdateProgress will be displayed covering the entire area of the UpdatePanel.

I want to replicate this behavior using plain javascript, as this behavior needs to be done for a windows client form.

Are there any javascript libraries available?

Thanks.

EDIT : I am using a Browser control inside windows client form to get results and render them.

Try the JavaScript library JQuery and JQueryUI's ProgressBar.

Umm ... you won't be able to use javascript for a windows client form. You will need to approximate the behavior using the provided windows forms controls like the progress bar

+1. How is it you're the only one who answered who caught that? ;-)

I guess this makes a difference. I am using a Browser control inside windows client form to get results and render them.

If that's the case, why wouldn't the built in updatepanel work? does the browsercontrol not execute javascript? because if it does then the updatepanel and updateprogress should just work as designed :-)

I guess I messed up the way I put in the question. Once the results are rendered, there is no async post back. The progress bar should be displayed when a sort button is clicked. Sort is done using javascript. Thanks again.
