Load times

[vickero007]

Is it possible to have an animated gif load last or at least not run until it's fully downloaded? Currently I have an animated gif that shows before the background (which it meshes with) and then runs very slowly the first time through. This is on a LAN connection also. How could I prevent this?

Have you tried a JavaScript preloader?

<script language=&quot;javascript&quot;>
if (document.images){
animgif = new Image
animgif.src = &quot;images/animation.gif&quot;
}
</script>
