Slow down page Load Time

  • Thread starter Thread starter Guest

This isn't going to slow it down, but there are two empty unused div tags:
<DIV

One at line 66 and the other at line 90

About the only way you're going to slow it down is with a timing script.

Well, that was really something else.

It loaded pretty darn slow for me at 512K. Plus, in FireFox, broken image
icons appear while waiting for the images to load.

Not pretty.

I know its a bit much Murray :-) Adding more does not slow it down unless
you are on dial up like Bob and a zillion others :-). I will be removing a
lot of it as this is just experimental at this time. When I started messing
with this, I found quite a few interesting things. When this page is open in
front page, you can click on any of the layers below that have any portion of
an image showing and it will bring that clicked image to the front and not
affect the others (except that it might cover a portion of the others) so
what I would like to have happen is that it quickly flashes through these the
images and comes to a stop with a collage of images showing and then have the
same effect as it does while working in front page by bringing any "Clicked"
image to the front. Is there any way to do this ??
 
Interesting concept...but.

You're not going to find a pre-made one that will do what you want.
I was going to suggest creating a server side asp solution but your site is
on an apache server so you need to look into MySQL

It could be done with javascript.
You're going to need to do a little programming and maybe some searching in
Google.

What on earth do you need so many layers for? Some people go their entire
career without using that many layers....
 
Why! Are they rationed??

The actual site is on a Windows server Steve so what would I have to do to
use this ASP solution?
 
If the actual site is on a windows server, then I assume you're developing
it in IIS, and using an Apache server as a test server, because the page I
opened came from an Apache server.

That said, You are going to need to learn to create a custom asp solution,
or find someone to create it for you.

Of the people who hang out here ( not to slight anyone else ) imho, three of
the best in the business are Thomas Rowe, Stefan Rusynko and Kathleen
Anderson.
( not in any particular order )
I don't know whether any of them are in a position to take on a new project.
If they are, maybe they'll see this and post a reply.
I personally ( once again not to slight anyone else ) would try to contact
Thomas Rowe.
He has some "purely asp" ( no css ) web sites out there that are utterly
amazing.

I myself am so far behind, I think I'm first.

But, if it's just the effect he's looking for wouldn't it be just as well to
do it with a small flash? Unless, of course the object is to pull different
images into the montage on the fly.

It's cool now, but slightly overwhelming as is.

jmo :-)

Possibly.
I don't do flash.

I probably should learn it, but I got turned off by it back when everyone
was creating intro pages with the "Please wait" messages with the progress
bar.

You are correct, the page I am developing is on an Apache server and the site
that it points to is on a Windows Server. Thanks for all the comments and
help. I'm not sure what if anything I will do with this. It does act
differently in Mozilla but thats not a problem for me as 98% of my site
visitors are from IE, and almost all are from knitting groups of one kind or
another so a unique group to draw from in my opinion.
