$.ajax({
            url: $_navigateURL,
            beforeSend: function (xhr) {
                PageLoadingProgressStart();
            }
        }).done(function (data) {
            $("#dvContentHolder").html(data);            
        }).fail(function (xhr) {
        })
        .always(function () {
            PageLoadingProgressEnd();
        });

The PageLoadingProgressStart() and PageLoadingProgressEnd() will handle the loading animation or progressbar or something else. like

function PageLoadingProgressStart() {
    $("#dvPageProgress div").width("0%");
    $("#dvPageProgress").show().find("div").width("40%");
}
function PageLoadingProgressEnd() {
    $("#dvPageProgress div").width("100%");
    setTimeout("$('#dvPageProgress').hide();", 500);
}
