Show processing when table.ajax.reload()?

rocking80

I found when create the datatable first time, it can show "Processing" indicator by adding "processing: true" flag.
But when to refresh the data by " table.ajax.reload()", the indicator will not show?
Anyone knows how to show it when call ajax.reload? Many thanks.

You can "build" your own processing function using,

$('#example').on('preXhr.dt', function (e, settings, data) {
 console.log('ajax start');
})

$('#example').on('xhr.dt', function (e, settings, json, xhr) {
        console.log('ajax end');
    })

I use the jQuery BlockUI Plugin (http://malsup.com/jquery/block/) inside the functions and that works very well and looks good. Doing it like this works for initial ajax load and reloads.
