乔纳森出色的解决方案在IE8中中断(动画根本不显示)。要解决这个问题，将CSS更改为:

.modal {
display:    none;
position:   fixed;
z-index:    1000;
top:        0;
left:       0;
height:     100%;
width:      100%;
background: rgba( 255, 255, 255, .8 ) 
            url('http://i.stack.imgur.com/FhHRx.gif') 
            50% 50% 
            no-repeat;
opacity: 0.80;
-ms-filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity = 80);
filter: alpha(opacity = 80)};

这将使按钮消失，然后“加载”的动画将出现在它们的位置，最后只显示成功消息。

$(function(){
    $('#submit').click(function(){
        $('#submit').hide();
        $("#form .buttons").append('<img src="assets/img/loading.gif" alt="Loading..." id="loading" />');
        $.post("sendmail.php",
                {emailFrom: nameVal, subject: subjectVal, message: messageVal},
                function(data){
                    jQuery("#form").slideUp("normal", function() {                 
                        $("#form").before('<h1>Success</h1><p>Your email was sent.</p>');
                    });
                }
        );
    });
});

如果你正在使用Turbolinks With Rails，这是我的解决方案:

这是CoffeeScript

$(window).on 'page:fetch', ->
  $('body').append("<div class='modal'></div>")
  $('body').addClass("loading")

$(window).on 'page:change', ->
  $('body').removeClass("loading")

这是基于Jonathan Sampson的第一个优秀答案的SASS CSS

# loader.css.scss

.modal {
    display:    none;
    position:   fixed;
    z-index:    1000;
    top:        0;
    left:       0;
    height:     100%;
    width:      100%;
    background: rgba( 255, 255, 255, 0.4)
            asset-url('ajax-loader.gif', image)
            50% 50% 
            no-repeat;
}
body.loading {
    overflow: hidden;   
}

body.loading .modal {
    display: block;
}

HTML

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap@4.6.1/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap@4.6.1/dist/js/bootstrap.bundle.min.js"></script>
<button type="button" id="btn-submit" class="btn btn-info">Submit</button>

  <div class="modal fade" id="loadingModal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="loader" aria-hidden="true" data-keyboard="false" data-backdrop="static">
    <div class="modal-dialog" style="width:50px;padding-top: 15%;">
      <div class="modal-content text-center">
        <img src="https://i.gifer.com/ZZ5H.gif" />    
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>

jQuery

$(function() {
      $('#btn-submit').click(function() {
        $('#loadingModal').modal('show');
      });
    });

就像Mark H说的block kui就是方法。

Ex.:

<script type="text/javascript" src="javascript/jquery/jquery.blockUI.js"></script>
<script>
// unblock when ajax activity stops
$(document).ajaxStop($.unblockUI); 

$("#downloadButton").click(function() {

    $("#dialog").dialog({
        width:"390px",
        modal:true,
        buttons: {
            "OK, AGUARDO O E-MAIL!":  function() {
                $.blockUI({ message: '<img src="img/ajax-loader.gif" />' });
                send();
            }
        }
    });
});

function send() {
    $.ajax({
        url: "download-enviar.do",          
        type: "POST",
        blablabla
    });
}
</script>

我使用CSS3制作动画

/************ CSS3 *************/ .icon-spin { font-size: 1.5em; display: inline-block; animation: spin1 2s infinite linear; } @keyframes spin1{ 0%{transform:rotate(0deg)} 100%{transform:rotate(359deg)} } /************** CSS3 cross-platform ******************/ .icon-spin-cross-platform { font-size: 1.5em; display: inline-block; -moz-animation: spin 2s infinite linear; -o-animation: spin 2s infinite linear; -webkit-animation: spin 2s infinite linear; animation: spin2 2s infinite linear; } @keyframes spin2{ 0%{transform:rotate(0deg)} 100%{transform:rotate(359deg)} } @-moz-keyframes spin2{ 0%{-moz-transform:rotate(0deg)} 100%{-moz-transform:rotate(359deg)} } @-webkit-keyframes spin2{ 0%{-webkit-transform:rotate(0deg)} 100%{-webkit-transform:rotate(359deg)} } @-o-keyframes spin2{ 0%{-o-transform:rotate(0deg)} 100%{-o-transform:rotate(359deg)} } @-ms-keyframes spin2{ 0%{-ms-transform:rotate(0deg)} 100%{-ms-transform:rotate(359deg)} } <link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-6"> Default CSS3 <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-repeat icon-spin"></span> </div> <div class="col-md-6"> Cross-Platform CSS3 <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-repeat icon-spin-cross-platform"></span> </div> </div>
