## `ic-indicator` - The Global Indicator Attribute

### Summary

The global indicator attribute can be used to show an indicator while a request is in process. This indicator will be shown in addition to any local request indicators otherwise specified.

### Syntax

The value of the attribute should be a valid selector of the indicator element to show, or `false` if you wish for an element to not show a global indicator specified on a parent element.

### Example

      <div ic-global-indicator="#indicator">
        <button ic-post-to="/target_url" >
          Click Me!
          <i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin ic-indicator" style="display:none"></i>
        </button>
        <br/>
        Global Indicator: <i id="indicator" class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin" style="display:none"></i>
      </div>
