Hey all,

Just wondering if there is a way to control the image load order. I want the background image to load before all the little thumbnail pictures (about 50). Is there a way to do this? I thought maybe something in javascript to do this but if there is a way in php, even better.

Thanks

Not really.

The browser should load the images as far as he "sees" a reference to them, and I believe it will finish with the CSS.

You can force that with javascript, by creating img element, and assigning a source to them.
Then, the browser should be able to get them from his cache, but then again, you have no guarantee that the effective load order will be the one you specified in javascript
