Images and PHP

berbbrown

I have a series of 10 images which I need to preload at the start of a user signing into my web site.

I was thinking of preloading them into an invisible DIV and then reference each image in the DIV when I need to view it on screen.

My problem is that I am running the page on HTTPS and I believe the images are not cached (Is this true??).

It is possible to retrieve images from file and store them encoded somewhere and then decoded to show the image on screen?

Can anyone point me the right direction please?

Thanks in advance.

No need for that, just put this in between the <body> tags of your site:

<script type="javascript">
var images = new Array('image_path_goes_here', 'another_image');
for (a = 0; a < images.length; a++)
{
    images[a] = new Image;
}
</script>

Just put the images in the array 'images', and you're done. 🙂
