Hi.<br />
I want to know how can I display a page with a waiting message while I load another page and then displaying the desired page.<br />
<br />
Or, at least, how can I Download <!--more--> faster the images in the page.<br />
Thanks.<br />
Cristi<!--content-->make the graphics smaller or preload the iamges while the page loads.<!--content-->Thanks, scoutt.<br />
So, that's all I can do with images..<br />
O.K. I accept it. <br />
But some tricks to display a splsh-screen-page..?<br />
And something else. Where can I find some true and detailed documentation about DOM?<br />
Cristi<!--content-->there isn't any tricks to display a splash screen. just show a page and then redirect to the main page of the site. I would use the meta tag refresh so that it seems seemless when they go to the next page.<br />
<br />
for DOM here you go<br />

Gracias, scoutt!<br />
But, can you tell me a few words about meta tag "refresh", please...<br />
Thanks for links!<br />
Cristi<!--content-->sure thing, it is very easy.<br />
<br />
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" Content="5;URL=page.html"><br />
<br />
the 5 is how many seconds it takes to start the refresh, the url is just that, the page you want to go to. you can stick this anywhere in the document and works with all browsers<!--content-->A lot of Download <!--more--> time (and space on your server) can be saved from optimizing your images!<br />
<br />
The JavaScript Source (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://javascript.internet.com/">http://javascript.internet.com/</a><!-- m -->) has some nice scripts for preloading images.<!--content-->O.K. scoutt.<br />
I got it. But I have a question:<br />
Is it possible to preload images while showing a page and then to transfer them into a script which is contained in another page? Because there is the place where I want to use them.<br />
I saw this only in pages that are included in frames that belong to the same frameset.<br />
And I would like to show the main page only after all Images have been loaded; I mean when "Image.complete" is true for all images.<br />
Any way, <br />
Multumesc.(It is the Romanian for "thanks" )<br />
Cristi<!--content-->Thanks, Arrika.<br />
I will use it, bu now they have problems with their search tool. Maybe later<br />
Gracia again.<br />

no you can't. you can preload any image but only for that page. then you have to preload them again for another page if you want them.<!--content-->Cristi,<br />
<br />
I found two scripts that preload images (one preloads images on another page and then redirects to that page) - they're cross-browser, too!<br />
<br />
Preload Images 1 (+ redirection) (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex4/preloadimage.htm">http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicinde ... dimage.htm</a><!-- m -->)<br />
<br />
Preload Images 2 (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex4/preloadimage2.htm">http://dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex4/preloadimage2.htm</a><!-- m -->)<!--content-->Thanks, friends.<br />
I used the code which Arika has been shown to me and it's almost fine.<br />
The only extra-thing I want is this:<br />
I'd like to put the code of loading images in the header of the document and not let the browser to display anything from body before all the images are loaded.<br />
But in Netscape 4.7 if I use <br />
while (!image.loaded)<br />
<br />
{<br />
//do things<br />
} <br />
<br />
the browser is blocked.<br />
Can you help?<br />
