Quote:Also note: Mozilla 1.0.0 (and presumably above) and Konqueror for Linux also load html before images.

So it seems that is a HTML standard. I'll do some research on that.

Thanks.

Hmm, this is strange. I use Opera 6.0 in windows 98. A lot of the time, the page background colour appears and nothing else happens until the progress bar has finished, when page then appears in totality. If while this is happening I toggle images off, the page appears (but without the images, obviously). If I toggle images back on then the page disappears again until all the images have loaded.

The bottom line is that my browser is often waiting for the images to load before displaying the page. I'll have to go check my settings. :???:

Strange, indeed.

I've checked the World Wide Web Consortium and it seems that the "feature" isn't part of the standard and the implementation of that varies from browser to browser.

I've noted, however, that they are planning (HTML 4.01 specs) to replace IMG tags with OBJECT, along with applets, movies and objects. That move seems a bit dangerous, IMHO...

They won't remove <img> tags for a long time yet though, cos most browsers won't remove <img>. Can earlier browsers display <object> properly?


My logo - Hexadecimal Disaster - 05-23-2003

Quite obviously. Heck, the <center> tag is deprecated since HTML 3.2 ('cuz <center> was just a quick hack of Netscape before they added support for the HTML 3.0 DIV element), but, alas!, it still works.

Theoretically, the WWW Consortium is the one in charge of keeping the standard, but in the practice NS and IE never cared about following standards.

Course they didn't. They were too busy making up new tags to better each other's ones.

And that <center> tag... It annoys me something chronic that I have to do a margin: 0px auto; rule in my stylesheet, then a text-align: center; rule to make up for Internet Explorer's shortcomings...

I have the exact same problem with Opera 6 on WinXP... find any settings? I sat through that HALO thread loading forever and ever on my little 28.8... *sigh*

That happens to me when I'm at school running IE5.5... go to www.ihug.co.nz, and the background color appears, then the rest of the page all at once...

Note to hex: if the picture is in cache I think it displays it before rendering the rest of the document... but I'm not sure, that's just what it looks like when I open a new thread in QBnews with both new and old avatars...

Well, that's the idea for a cache, isn't it? :wink:

PD: GOD DAMN "INVALID_SESSION"! PLEASE! Someone fix this! I'm f***in' sick of loggin' in!
