actionStatus start facet never displays

I'm having a problem getting the start status to render.  I'd expect it to show up when clicking the Search button, but it doesn't.  The page looks something like this:

Code:
<apex:commandButton id="searchButton" reRender="testList" value="Search" />
<apex:outputPanel id="testList">
 <apex:actionStatus>
  <apex:facet name="stop">
     test stop text
  </apex:facet>
  <apex:facet name="start">
    <apex:repeat value="{!records}" var="record" id="recordRepeat">
   <!-- omitted -->
   </apex:repeat>
  </apex:facet>
 </apex:actionStatus>
</apex:outputPanel>

 Is there something else required in order to get the start facet to show up? 

TIA

Jeremy

You almost had it. You need the attribute status in the command button to point to the Id of the actionStatus component.


Code:
<apex:commandButton id="searchButton" reRender="testList" value="Search" status="status"/>
<apex:outputPanel id="testList">
 <apex:actionStatus id="status">
  <apex:facet name="stop">
     test stop text
  </apex:facet>
  <apex:facet name="start">
    <apex:repeat value="{!records}" var="record" id="recordRepeat">
   <!-- omitted -->
   </apex:repeat>
  </apex:facet>
 </apex:actionStatus>
</apex:outputPanel>

You rock.  That fixed it.  Makes me wonder how this example works, considering it doesn't use the status attribute http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/pages/index_CSH.htm#pages_quick_start_ajax_async_status.htm

I actually couldn't get that example to work until I added the status attribute in commandLink and the id attribute in actionStatus.
