Pre-loading text into the cache?

[tedster]

Many times I use javascript to pre-load images into the cache. It works great and gives the user a feeling of instant response.

Does anyone know a method for pre-loading text, or even an entire HTML doc, into the browser cache?

You can do it the old fashioned way, in the HEAD section:

<LINK REL="next" HREF="http://www.your_page_URL.html">

This pre-loads the entire document, presuming that it is the next page the user requests.

Thanks! I really needed that.

I've experimented with micro "hidden" Iframes too. I never could figure out how to get rid of the auto created scroll bars in some browsers though.
