Hi dakoz,

You can control it yourself, just develop right control logic for that using alerts and/or gauges...there's no secret

i don't know what am doing wrong ..???

am using an implacit list in which is fill froma string recieved from an httpconnection ...

            alert.setTimeout(Alert.FOREVER);
            alert.setString("\n Please Wait\n Loading data ...");
            alert.addCommand(exitCommand);
            display.setCurrent(alert);
            //Get selected item from list " service"
            int g=menuList.getSelectedIndex();
            Service =menuItem[g];

Hi dakoz,

R u calling another display.setCurrent() of the menulist/another displayable soon after this code.
According to midp api specs :-
Calls to setCurrent() are not queued. A delayed request made by a setCurrent() call may be superseded by a subsequent call to setCurrent(). For example, if screen S1 is current, then


d.setCurrent(S2);
d.setCurrent(S3);

may eventually result in S3 being made current, bypassing S2 entirely.

Hope it is of some help to u.
