Please tell me what this firefox wheel is called?

[bsheridan]

Im just messing around with customizing firefox and am looking for info on this symbol in firefox. If I could get its 'most-known' name my google searches would be more useful 😉

I've tried 'firefox egg timer' but no luck.

Thanks b.

It's processing your instructions. It compares to the Apple 'beachball'.

He's asking the name, not what it is...

And I dunno the name 😱.

Yes I know what it does, but I am looking for its particular name?

Thanks anyways.

Why should it have a name?

Call it Bill if you like.

But I'm trying to find out about its code so need its name to search google. If there is a name that everyone knows it'll make things much easier.

Found it
The mouse pointer is called the cursor and I'm looking for the progress cursor.

It is generally called a "busy cursor" or "wait cursor."
