KARN Bipolar (III) Inmate From: North Bay, Ontario, CA Insane since: Apr 2001	posted 09-28-2001 04:26 When I was using layers to layout some graphics I set the table to 100% (width) to have some pictures stay at both ends and something that stretches in the center... but whenever I do the preview it's alittle longer than the browser window... anybody know why? Also, I'am looking for a compact (less lines and character) of a image preloader when the page starts. Pls Help. ::K::A::R::N::

here's your basic preloader for images.
just swap out the images with paths to you images.
To use them refrence like this

imgs[number].src
I put this in a function and call it onload cuz it speeds up the viewing of the page but you can just put it in your head script tags

imgsrc = new Array();
imgsrc[0] = '/graphics/global/tn_join_on.gif';
imgsrc[1] = '/graphics/global/tn_join_off.gif';
imgsrc[2] = '/graphics/global/tn_member_on.gif';
imgsrc[3] = '/graphics/global/tn_member_off.gif';
imgsrc[4] = '/graphics/global/tn_site_on.gif';
imgsrc[5] = '/graphics/global/tn_site_off.gif';
imgsrc[6] = '/graphics/global/tn_about_on.gif';
imgsrc[7] = '/graphics/global/tn_about_off.gif';

imgs = new Array()
if (document.images){
for (i=0; i < imgsrc.length;i++){
imgs[i] = new Image;
imgs[i].src = imgsrc[i];
}
}

As for Wakkos' question, I actually don't use a layer *over* things, I just hide things until the page loads.

<head>
<script ...>
function loaded()
{
document.getElementById('loadingdiv').style.visibility = 'hidden';
document.getElementById('content').style.visibility = 'visible';
document.getElementById('morecontent').style.visibility = 'visible';
document.getElementById('evenmorecontent').style.visibility = 'visible';
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="loaded();">

<div id="loadingdiv">Loading...</div>
<div id="content">...</div>
<div id="morecontent">...</div>
<div id="evenmorecontent">...</div>

</body>
