msg:860172 | 12:09 pm on Mar 9, 2002 (gmt 0) | Hello! I wounder if there is anyone out there who can help me with my problem. This is the situation, i´m running a website and it is all built with layers wich makes the index.html-file pretty large. My question is: Is it possible to preload layers?? for exampel on an intro page so the index file will open faster?? If the topic above is impossible, can someone help with a good image preloader that preloads all the images on the page before it opens! Thanx on advance! /Dennis

(javascripts.com, javascriptcity.com, java-scripts.com, etc., etc... Search Google for '"free javascript" preload download') Just make sure not to get a script that ONLY tests for Netscape/IE browsers by name, or you'll be leaving some of your alternative-browser users out in the cold...

Just create one big div the covers the entire screen with a message like "loading..." or whatever. Have an onload event for the big div so its the last thing to load. So onload -> hide big layer thus revealing content below.
