Hmm, ultimately, I can only say that apparenetly, your connection is so slow that it will still take some time for the javascript itself to function. The only solution left is to use CSS and render it the same way. I'll do this for you if you want, and you can test it on your 56k connection pm me later, -whyme

What's CSS? Thanks for the help again! It's so nice of you!

Yeah, my connection's slow. But at least it could help me test the site if it's friendly for slower connections. A lot of people still use slow connections you know.

CSS is Cascading Style Sheets, it's another wat that you can do rollovers and create content layout without fumbling around with javascript. If you want to try out CSS, PM me, and i'll do it for you later this week, right now, I'm a bit busy with work.

I see. I changed my script. It isn't DHTML anymore. It takes a second for the rollover to work in IE. (1 sec. of cursor over the image) But it doesn't work at all in Firefox. (For me) But it works in all browsers offline. Strange. I PMed you about this too. You haven't seemed to reply yet. I guess you're busy, but you should check out what I changed before you make scripts for me.

Once again, Thank you for your time!

Somebody beat me to the preload function

But I did notice what seemed to be several identical javascripts in your code. I don't have time to pour over your code, but here is my appraisal of the situation.

You know that script that handles the function that switches images? You only need that once. You can reference that function as many times as you want in the body of your page, but inserting the script in the head multiple times only serves to slow everything down.

Presumably, you put that in your code once for each image. Classic n00b. I did the same thing before I learned a bit about Javascript.

Of course, it's entirely possible that I overlooked something in my haste (finals week!).

Yes, it's true. I did put several scripts of that for each image. I know nothing about Javascript, like I mentioned before, I'm afraid to tamper with it.
So here I am waiting for someone to show me how to create a script that I can use for the entire page. (Or is it all I need? If I delete all but one of those head tag scripts, will it work?)
