How can I disable an entire HTML page on an event like in the case of JavaScript alert?

Question

I am developing a web page in JSP/HTML in which I have to disable/ \'gray screen\' an entire web page on a button click event so that an end user can\'t access the other ele

Answer 1

There are may ways to achieve this.. but the simplest one which i came across is to use div tag to cover the page and then remove it when event is complete

$('body').append('

This will add a div tag to whole body.At the end of function include this

$("#over").remove();
