Good evening,
I have a webpage that changes the image when you mousover another image and I was wondering if I could preload the images to make it faster. it takes about 2.5 seconds to change the image. Should I set my meta tags to cache? The page is at http://www.ribbb.com/images/catologimages/poolcues/viking/2007/g60-g69/g60-g69.html
I am not trying to sight advertise I just needed some input.
thanks
Dave

I think you just need a little javascript routine that reads the image files inside the head part of your page. This will cause the images to be read by the browser before the rest of the page is and they will thus be ready when the page …
Jump to PostYes, unfortunately it will. You have the choice of either the page loading slower initially and the mouseover image change happening instantly, or the page loading a little faster and the images taking longer to show when you mouseover.
