"Dynamic" page content.

Basically I have written a cgi script in Python to automatically
download TIFF
images of patents from the US patent office and create a PDF file of
them.

What I want is that the user can see what is happening when the images
are being downloaded, because it takes a while to download them and
there can be anything up to 30 individual files for each image.

Is there a way of using Javascript or any other means, that I could it
could print on the webpage:

Downloading image 1

Downloading image 2
...
Downloading image X

as the individual pictures are being downloaded so the user doesn't
think the program is hanging?

To give you a better explaination of what I want, you could visit
www.pat2pdf.org.

Type in 123456 as the patent number, you see what it does? It tells the

user that it is requesting the various TIFF images and then displays
the link to the PDF file that it has created.

This is exactly what I want to do, so if anyone has any idea how it is
done I would be greatful.
