Hi guys,

Currently, my code shows a loading spinner gif, returns the data and caches it. However, once the data has been cached, there is a flicker of the loading gif for a split second before the data gets loaded in. It's distracting and I'd like to get rid of it. I think I'm using the wrong method in the beforeSend function here:

$.ajax({
                type    : "GET",
                cache   : false,
                url     : "book_data.php",
                data    : { keywords : keywords, page : page },
                beforeSend : function() {                   
                    $('.jPag-pages li:not(.cached)').each(function (i) {                        
                        $('#searchResults').html('<p id="loader">Loading...<img src="../assets/images/ajax-loader.gif" alt="Loading..." /></p>');
                    });
                },
                success : function(data) {  
                    $('.jPag-current').parent().addClass('cached');
                    $('#searchResults').replaceWith($(data).find('#searchResults')).find('table.sortable tbody tr:odd').addClass('odd');
                    detailPage();
                    selectForm();                   
                }
            });
