The loader is the best way to manage wait time on page load or any other operation.
How to add loader/spinner on a Django based website.
How to use loader in Website front page:-
1) Create the Html page and define two different <div> tag one for loader and another for complete site content.
<div id="loader"></div>
<div style="display:none;" id="myDiv" class="animate-bottom">
All Site Content
</div>
2) Write Style to manage loader or we can place the image under it.
<style>
/* Center the loader */
#loader {
position: absolute;
left: 50%;
top: 50%;
z-index: 1;
width: 150px;
height: 150px;
margin: -75px 0 0 -75px;
border: 16px solid #f3f3f3;
border-radius: 50%;
border-top: 16px solid #3498db;
width: 120px;
height: 120px;
-webkit-animation: spin 2s linear infinite;
animation: spin 2s linear infinite;
}
@-webkit-keyframes spin {
0% { -webkit-transform: rotate(0deg); }
100% { -webkit-transform: rotate(360deg); }
}
@keyframes spin {
0% { transform: rotate(0deg); }
100% { transform: rotate(360deg); }
}
/* Add animation to "page content" */
.animate-bottom {
position: relative;
-webkit-animation-name: animatebottom;
-webkit-animation-duration: 1s;
animation-name: animatebottom;
animation-duration: 1s
}
@-webkit-keyframes animatebottom {
from { bottom:-100px; opacity:0 }
to { bottom:0px; opacity:1 }
}
@keyframes animatebottom {
from{ bottom:-100px; opacity:0 }
to{ bottom:0; opacity:1 }
}
#myDiv {
display: none;
text-align: center;
}
</style>
3)Use onload event underbody and call function into it.
<body onload="myFunction()">
4) Define javascript function to implement loader.
<script>
var myVar;
function myFunction() {
myVar = setTimeout(showPage, 3000);
}
function showPage() {
document.getElementById("loader").style.display = "none";
document.getElementById("myDiv").style.display = "block";
}
</script>
