Hi,

I just configured the handy Photo Gallery script ([http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/photogallery.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/photogallery.htm)) from here, but I am wondering if I can add a “pre-load next picture” feature. Basically I want the next picture to be loading while the visitor is viewing the current image. Is that possible?

thanks!  
John
