Hello,

I am using perl and xforms4perl to create some translation program.
In a form, i have a button with a callback function. This callback function
execute a long calculus and i would like to display a message "Wait please"
or something like that during calculations.

I've tried "fl_set_oneliner" but it did not work.
I've tried "fl_set_label" with a text object in the form, but the form is
not updated, even if I use "fl_redraw_form".
I've tried to create an invisible form that is shown at the beginning of the
callback function and hiden again at the end of the callback. But, once again,
it does not work, showing only the frame of the window, but not the content.

Now, i don't what to try.
Could someone help me or tell me what i'm doing wrong ?

System : LINUX RedHat 5.2, Xforms 0.88, Xforms4perl 0.8.4, perl 5.004_04

TIA.
