a4j:commandButton timeout attribute

[icai]

Hi,

In one of the buttons I have set timeout = "6000". As soon as button is clicked i disable it and show a wheel.

I want to enable the button and stop showing the wheel as soon as request times out. Please let me know how to do this.

Also can I force the button to timeout from a javascript function? I mean I want a ajax action to stop processing if some one clicks on lets say "Cancel" button.

Right now if Cancel is hit, ajax request is anyway going on and it goes on displaying parts which should be not displayed as the User has hit the cancel button.

Please help!

use a4j:status and it's start and stop facets to trigger javascript that disables the button/link

or even easier: use the onclick and oncomplete attributes
