You might have to tweak it a little because I made it up as I went along. Is
that what you meant?
Might be usefull for preloading images for the next page etc.

Subject: stand-alone image preload?


| Hi all
|
| Can anyone recomend a stand-alone javascript image preloader?  I say
| stand-alone because all of the ones I have found seem to be used in
| conjunction with a rollover script.  What if I am not doing a rollover?
| How do I just preload any image(s) I like?
|
| tia!
