Leaflet Loading ... Spinner?

[Arnie Shore]

All, I can use a quite ordinary way of letting my users know that the
map is being rendered, pending that event's happy completion.

The spinner add-on's I've peeked at seem to have the coordinates
hardened in the code!

I use a div on top of the map with a spinning "loading animation". When I start loading new data, I .show() the layer. Once it's loaded, I .hide() the layer, all with JQuery.

For example:

$('#maploader').show();

$.get("/loadStuff.php", {parameter: value}, function(data){

// do stuff

$('#maploader').hide();

}, "json");

Check out jquery blockUI, which is my current module of choice for this:
