Controlling when to show progress bar: During page load but not during search

jeff00seattle

I am familiar with oLanguage.sProcessing and bProcessing about showing progress bar.

Now, I wish to customize when to show progress bar.

It is fine to show progress bar during initial table loading, but irritating when typing in Search box.

So, I want to show Progress bar only upon table loading, but disabled if typing in Search box.

My initial thought is to use jQuery to display none if keying is performed within Search box.

Other ideas? Thanks
