Is there a possibility to influence the order in which the objects on my website are loaded by the browser. A flash film, e.g. shall be loaded last.
For help, I would be grateful.
Thanks.
 
The only way to do this is to use JS in the header to preload images or objects. I don't think there is a way to make something load last. W/in the HTML everything is loaded in the order that it is hit in the document, top to bottam, left to right. Here is a thought though; If you do not specify hight and width for your images, the whole page will wait for them, ASP is not processed the same way as HTML and can end up at the end of the page, you can use a meta tage to auto load another page after a specified interval. I don't mean to say that any of that is useful to you, but it may help you figure something out. Daniel Shackelford
