GreaseMonkey - page load question

[Alex]

Sorry if this is not a correct forum to post to.

I have a page from my service provider that loads 1000's of table
cells. These cells load for 3-4 mins and links on that page usually not
available untill the whole page loads. I need to find a way to "skip"
load of these cells.

Problem is that GreaseMonkey work only on a fully loaded page. What
happens is that the page loads 3-4 mins and then the cells go away once
the page loads and GreaseMonkey kicks in.

Question, is there a way to remove parts of HTML while page is loading
to avoid loading these items and shorten the page load time?

Thank you.

I don't think you'll be very successful doing this client-side. Whether
or not you want to view them, unless there is logic to prevent them
loading on the server-side, you will still have to wait for all that
HTML to come before you get the stuff you want.

Tell your service provider that their site is poorly implemented and
they should fix it.

You might try copying the (huge) source of the web page in question, then
editing it to remove everything you don't want to see. Save this page on
your local file system and create a bookmark to it. When your ISP starts
to load its huge page, you can manually click the bookmark for your local
"clean" copy of the page. HTH.

Try disabling images downloading, then re-enabling them once the page
is loaded can speed things up too.
