Overlays desired DOM element(s) with a spinner, fading out the background. Nothing required other than the script.

I have two working examples available to test at: http://web.onassar.com/blog/2013/02/23/jquery-plugin-jquery-spin-overlay-spinner-plugin/

$('ul#list li').spin();

This will grab each li element under the ul#list element, apply an overlay, and then center/vertically align a spinner over it. To turn them off, you simply make another call to $('ul#list li').spin();

$(window).spin();

This will place an overlay over the html element (which generally includes the entire page). It will as well center/vertically align the spinner, but the spinner will be fixed such that if you scroll, it'll stay with you.
