Well, finally got the cursor='wait'  working, by calling a one-off timeout
and then going on with
the remote script.

I noticed also, don't know if it was my programming, but I couldn't change
the cursor type if it
was only defined in the CSS. I had to define it in script before I could
change it in script.
ie

<script>
document.all['remotenav'].style.cursor='default'
function mytest()
{
document.all['remotenav'].style.cursor='wait'
}
<script>
