Original Answer
I've needed this and after some research I came up with this (jQuery needed):
First, right after the <body> tag add this:
<div id="loading">
<img id="loading-image" src="path/to/ajax-loader.gif" alt="Loading..." />
</div>
Then add the style class for the div and image to your CSS:
#loading {
position: fixed;
display: block;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
top: 0;
left: 0;
text-align: center;
opacity: 0.7;
background-color: #fff;
z-index: 99;
}
#loading-image {
position: absolute;
top: 100px;
left: 240px;
z-index: 100;
}
Then, add this javascript to your page (preferably at the end of your page, before your closing </body> tag, of course):
<script>
$(window).load(function() {
$('#loading').hide();
});
</script>
Finally, adjust the position of the loading image and the background-color of the loading div with the style class.
This is it, should work just fine. But of course you should have an ajax-loader.gif somewhere or use base64 url for image's src value. Freebies here. (Right-click > Save Image As...)
Update
For jQuery 3.0 and above you can use:
<script>
$(window).on('load', function () {
$('#loading').hide();
})
</script>
Update
The original answer is from jQuery and before flexbox era. You can use many view management libraries / frameworks now like Angular, React and Vue.js. And for CSS you have flexbox option. Below is CSS alternative:
#loading {
position: fixed;
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
top: 0;
left: 0;
opacity: 0.7;
background-color: #fff;
z-index: 99;
}
#loading-image {
z-index: 100;
}
