I have an operation on my Page that then requires 3 long (few seconds each) operations to be performed in series. After each operation is performed though, I would like the controller to return a partial view and have the page update with a status (keeps the user informed, I find that if people know that stuff is happening they worry less). Is there a MVC 'way' of doing this, or should I just use jQuery to do it?
Thanks.
For our site we have a big action that requires some time. That action is composed by subactions, we aggregate the results and we build a nice view.

I don't know if you can apply all of these things to your problem but some of then can be really nice.
We don't use MVC, we use some asmx services with jQuery and ajax.
