Rails - Jul 2006 - Iframe upload indicator

I''m using the iframe trick to upload files with form_tag and a target
pointing to the iframe. All is working, but I would like to display an
indicator of the upload. All I want to do is show a hidden animated gif via
Element.show. With form_remote_tag, i could use the :loading and :complete
callbacks to do an Element.show and Element.hide. How do I achieve a similar
effect with form_tag?

form onSubmit event might help.

That''s exactly what I ended up doing.
onSubmit="Element.hide" and page.hide as the first line in the rjs.
A bit elementary but it works.
