Javascript(I guess) Preloader

programming
1

Hey everyone,

What I want to do is have a good chunk, if not all of my images to be preloaded a la lostinbutter.
Basically what I want to do is when the user enters my splash page is for the images to instantly start loading, and once they click on the link to enter that maybe a preloader in a pop up opens up, or it just takes you to a page with a preloader or something along those lines. I figure it would make it faster to navigate and what not.

Thanks a lot:beam:

I didn’t understand the stuff. Someone post it in here and help a brotha out.

8

you didn’t understand what stuff?

9

All of it. What they do, what info to change, where to put it.

10

Oh… I dunno either

11

How don’t you know.

12

I just downloaded a file… I havent even opened it yet…

13

Open it.

14

Hmm, 28 posts asking where to get a Javascript preloader.

28 finds the preloader, but doesn’t have time to check it out just yet.

Sykull <I>demands</I> 28 open it now just because he doesn’t want to figure it out on his own (and even though he doesn’t know if they downloaded the same file).

Going over that situation in my head I find it a bit hard to see why 28 should help you Sykull.

For one, I didn’t demand him, Beta. I asked. I don’t know where you get me demanding with a simple “Open it”. I didn’t say “**** YOU OPEN THAT THING NOW!!”… And if you know how can you try and help me?

16

“Open it” is a command is it not?

17

No. And why did you leave my thread locked, continue to say things to me, and delete my other thread, when you knew I still hadn’t been helped? Just to be a jerk?

18

Wrong answer. “Open It” is indeed a command.

And I didn’t know your thread was locked. Mods can post despite that so I got no notification of it being locked.

If you read my question there you can answer me here then.

Would he help someone that acts as rude as you do?

19

I said “Open It” as in “Well, go ahead and open it, then get back to me”… I was in a rush, I don’t spend all day on Kirupa like you.

Whyd you delete my other thread?

And he didn’t help me at all, so the question doesn’t matter. I could care less if think I am rude. I just want to learn how to preload my images.

I don’t spend all day here either. And I am glad you don’t, because we dont need people like you around here.

And “Open It” is not the same as “Well, go ahead and open it, then get back to me”, it isn’t even close.

Who said I deleted your other thread?

And as for that guy not helping, he misunderstood your question and thought you were talking about Flash. Perhaps if you clarified instead of getting mad he could have helped you with your actual problem.
