When running the Auction Monitor demo in IE, an hour glass is shown for each clock tick. This isn't an issue in Firefox and Chrome.

The issue is caused by the use of marker global variable that keeps track of the request type, user initiated or push triggered. In IE some of the push initiated requests end up in the JSF bridge queue and requests then can overlap, each request toggling the state of the global variable.

Since the request cannot be inspected in the callbacks to determine its type the adopted solution was to introduce an extra hidden form. The push initiated requests are sent using one form and the single submit is using another form. This way the callbacks that need to know the request type can infer the type from the ID of the form.

Customer also reports as seeing the hour glass in Firefox 3.6.27. My testing in Firefox 10.0.2 doesn't show the hour glass.
