here I found some JavaScript to make update process yourself and also you can put it anywhere in page and it work any update panel in page .

<script type="text/javascript">
             // Get the instance of PageRequestManager.
             var prm = Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManager.getInstance();
             // Add initializeRequest and endRequest
             prm.add_initializeRequest(prm_InitializeRequest);
             prm.add_endRequest(prm_EndRequest);

             // Called when async postback begins
             function prm_InitializeRequest(sender, args) {
                 // get the divImage and set it to visible
                 var panelProg = $get('divImage');                
                 panelProg.style.display = '';
                 // reset label text
                 var lbl = $get('<%= this.lblText.ClientID %>');
                 lbl.innerHTML = '';

                 // Disable button that caused a postback
                 $get(args._postBackElement.id).disabled = true;
             }

             // Called when async postback ends
             function prm_EndRequest(sender, args) {
                 // get the divImage and hide it again
                     $('divImage').hide();                
                  // Enable button that caused a postback
                 $get(sender._postBackSettings.sourceElement.id).disabled = false;
             }
         </script>

I have a form that is being dynamically built depending on user selection using Ajax (built in .NET Ajax with UpdatePanel).

how can I insert a "standard" ajax loading icon (maybe have it attached to the mouse pointer) while the postback is happening then remove it when the post back is finished?

I do have the AjaxToolKit installed if that helps.
