I need to display message when the user clicks link

How can I implement something where once the user click the hyper link on Page1, a "processing..." message and then as soon as Page2 is ready it forwards to Page2?

It is working for button click which I earlier posted got response implemented successfully.Thanks.

Hidden DOM element containing the message and to make it visible

You can use either

<a href="javascript:someFunction()">LINK</a>

or

<a href="#" onclick="someFunction(); return false;">LINK</a>

or you can check this link. anchor tag onclick function
