copied!<p><strong>Edit 1:</strong> Wrote a customizable loader so you can register/un-register loaders.. See below,</p> <p><strong>Edit 2:</strong> As Vision pointed out </p> <blockquote> <p>Just out of interest... I thought, what is the point to create multiple timers and store them in the array? If you wait for some time, the separate timers will desynchronize. How about this: jsfiddle.net/rMpK9/5</p> </blockquote> <p><strong>Improved Code:</strong> (From Vision's <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/rMpK9/5" rel="nofollow">DEMO</a> and use of <code>getElementsByTagName</code>)</p> <pre><code>var timer = null, dotLimit = 3, elements = []; function registerProgressDots(progress) { for (var i = 0; i < progress.length; i++) { elements.push(progress[i]); } timer = setInterval(function() { for (var i = 0; i < elements.length; i++) { with(elements[i]) { innerHTML = innerHTML.length == dotLimit ?
