How to call and dismiss the "Updating Area" overlay using Javascript

Thread Hey online super heroes,

The problem:
On our site we have a vehicle make/model database search function. Once a user searches for their vehicle, a table of data is returned from the database and then I run my own custom Javascript function to sort the data and make it more user friendly. Sometimes this takes a split second if there is only a few results, but sometimes it can take a few seconds if there is a few thousand results.

To avoid having a user sit there wondering what's happening, I want to call the "Updating Area" overlay so that they can know it's just loading.

I could just create my own "Updating Area" overlay, but for consistency I would rather use the one you guys have already created.

So my question is, is there a function I can use to call and to dismiss the "Updating Area" overlay?

Thanks,
Andy
