Im currently working on a new project that has a modal window on all the pages which houses the login form. Currently the form just displays, then when the user click 'Login', the value 'Login' changes to 'Processing' and after 5 seconds the form submits. I like the way this does this, but I would like to add a loading image that shows when the user clicks submit. So for this I intend to change the '' to '' but the thing is I am not sure in what way I can implement this.
Currently my page looks like this:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Login Page</title>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<!-- Bootstrap -->
<link href="../realcms/v0.2/admin/css/style.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen">

</head>

<div class="container">
<a data-toggle="modal" href="#myModal" class="btn btn-primary btn-large">Launch demo modal</a>

</div>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var form = document.getElementById("login-form");
form.onsubmit = function() { return false; } // ensure ENTER won't cause submit
form.loginButton.onclick = function( )

this.value = "Process";
setTimeout( function() { form.submit(); }, 5000 );
