Mr_J Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Hi all, I want to preload some 1.5mb (x17)images to speedup things. Please just tell me wtf must I do... 2 problems: 1. My code: <head>(found on w3schools) <SCRIPT language="JavaScript"> <!-- pic1= load Img(230,172); pic1.src="http://www.sub-domain.net/img/folder/file.jpg"; function LoadImage() { document.getElementById('myImage').src=pic1.src; } //--> </SCRIPT> </head> <body> <table border="0"> <tr> <th width="230" bordercolor="#FFFF00" bordercolorlight="#C0C0C0" bordercolordark="#808080" height="153"><p align='top'>Quen</p> <img id="myImage" src="http://www.sub-domain.net/img/folder/file.jpg"> </th></tr></table> Then, it seems I do not have access to the files. The site is a sub-domain of www.some-site.com. I browse with explorer (windows vista) to ftp.somesite.com/public_html/sub-domain.net/img/folder/file.jpg but when I type the path in the browser(FF), I get 403 You don't have permission to access www.sub-domain/img/folder/file.jpg If I load some other images i.e. the bg.jpg, it loads BUT, the bg.jpg image is in www.sub-domain.net/img/bg.jpg I have tried a number of ways but no avail.

RichardRotterdam Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Reading through your post I notice you have 2 problems. 1. the javascript pre-load thing 2. image path issue To receive an answer which suits your needs I suggest you clarify your specific problem a bit more concering your image preloading. The thing is the first time an image get's loaded into your browser it will need to load that image, pre-loading won't speed up a thing. There is no magic javascript recipe to make imageloading faster.Why do you need the the image to be pre-loaded? Is there a javascript function depends on the image that needs to be loaded first? The image path issue I find a bit confusing can you clarify that?

Mr_J Posted June 25, 2009 Author Share Posted June 25, 2009 Ok, Got it right. The load is WAY faster than it used to be... This is how I got it right... <script language="JavaScript"> function preloader() { // counter var i = 0; // create object imageObj = new Image(); // set image list images = new Array(); images[0]="http://www.site.za.net/fotos/index/1.jpg" images[1]="http://www.site.za.net/fotos/index/DSCF0381.JPG" images[2]="http://www.site.za.net/fotos/index/Jessica034.JPG" images[3]="http://www.site.za.net/fotos/index/krap.JPG" images[4]="http://www.site.za.net/fotos/index/5.jpg" // start preloading for(i=0; i<=3; i++) { imageObj.src=images[i]; } } </script> <body> <img src="fotos/index/1.jpg"> <img src="fotos/index/DSCF0381.JPG"> <img src="fotos/index/Jessica034.JPG"> <img src="fotos/index/krap.JPG"> <img src="fotos/index/5.jpg"> </body> </html> Thanks for the late reply anyway...

Are you sure? I see a preload function but I do not see the function being called. Have you done a test clearing the cache of your browser while testing?

Also, this (among other things): for(i=0; i<=3; i++) { imageObj.src=images[i]; } Isn't doing what you think it's doing.
