Hello,
I am helping to design a web application that uses 167 little icons on
various pages in a framed environment. As is, the app loads each icon
on a page by page basis, and if an image changes (like a "plus" becomes
a "minus" when a folder icon is expanded) is does a
document.all[img].src="picsV/minus.gif"
which I am pretty sure goes and grabs the image at that moment, making
no use of caching images at all.
QUESTIONS
1. Does it make sense to use javascript to do a
var Icon_Minus = new Image
Icon_Minus.src = "picsV/minus.gif"
in the main frameset for each of the icons that change (which is about
50), so I will have all changeable icons cached for quick display on
each page when they change?
2. Can you "flip" images in sub-frames that were cached in a parent?
Thanks,
Ann
