Hi All,
I need some help resolving a pretty tricky problem. I have a javascript
application running from a CD. The script preloads between 500 to 1000
jpegs (about 40K each) to the IE. The IE immediatly decompresses the
jpegs, essentially using up too much memory.
I have a few limitations working against me:
A) Since the jpegs reside on a CD, it is crucial that I preload them to
the IE in order to not incur the seek time that is needed when the user
wishes to view the jpeg.
B) This is not a slide show, the user has to be able to view the
different jpegs when he wants to and will not wait the full second that
will be needed to load them. It is only possible to wait when the
script loads.
Is anyone familiar with a way to preload the images without the IE
decompressing them immediatly? By the way Netscape seems not to have
problems like that...
