Show loading / processing bar using the API

Yani

Is it possible to show the loading/processing bar using the API?
I'm handling some Ajax myself, and would like to show the user something is happening in the background.

Yani, were you able to figure out how to achieve this?

No, not yet. I've been working on some other things while waiting for an answer.
I contacted Allan in regards to this question. I'm sure he'll reply soon.

I'm not familiar with an API to do this. You could create a div to display "loading data" before your AJAX call then when complete clear the text.

This plug-in API method can be used to control DataTables' processing display.
