Hello everyone. Again, I hope you're not sick of me yet! :)
A few minor, but, I feel, relatively important, things on the page that
I'm working on (currently at http://david.national-anthems.net/)
When loading the index page, or any of the anthem pages (the ones
beginning with "A" are done and up), the table of contents loads in
an internal frame (thanks again to whoever it was on this list who
suggested that). However, when I checked the page at work (my
day job work), it takes quite a while to load the page, and all 300+
contents of the table of contents has to have the bullet graphic
loaded (part of the collapsible table of contents script I'm using).
However, this doesn't appear to be the case when I load the page
from home. Both are Windows machines running Windows 98, so I
woder why my work comuter has to load those graphics, and
displays the message "Loading bullet.gif" or whatever, counting
down how many t's loading from 300+ to "Done". Does it appear
this way on yorus too?
Also, I'm thinking it would be nice to find a way to disable left-click
on one graphic only. If you go to any (or almost any) anthem page
(provided it's one of the ones that begin with "A" you'll notice one
link for viewing and one for downloading. I currently have a floating
window whenever a mouse hovers over the download button, telling
people the instructions to download, so they right-click and "save
target as", rather than left click, which is probably the most intuitive
action for most surfers. If there was a way to just activate a java
alert whever that button is left-clicked, and left-clicking would be
allowed on the view/listen" button, that would be grand. (I do know
how to disable left clicks on the entire page, but not for one button.)
That is all. Thanks in advance.
