Ok, right, so I have some pictures in a table (Question1) and some text (Question2).

Question 1
Is there a way of having a loading picture before the original image shows up?

Question 2
Is there a way of having a loading picture before the text shows?

This is only 'cause i would like some text that 'kinda looks like it's loading first, or a delay.

I have an 'Agree' box on my website so that when people enter, they have to agree to certain terms first. Is there a way of having a checkbox underneath saying 'Do not show me this page again.' and when they select that, it stores a cookie or something so that they don't see the page again?

Give me your comments and ideas. Thanks; ToshNeox

What you want to do can't be done with HTML alone. It'll take, at the very least, Javascript. I've moved this thread over to the appropriate forum for you.

i don't have a lot of time to explain but you need to look into these things...

javascript:

Code:

var image1 = new Image();
var image2 = new Image();

image2.src = imageThatSaysLoading.jpg;
image1.src = pictureThatIsLoading.jpg;

// in your HTML you need to attach the "id" attribute to your <img> tag
// id="theImage"  - example - <img src="myDumbImage.jpg" id="theImage" />

if(image1.complete != true)
{
     document.getElementById('theImage').src = image2.src;
}else{
     document.getElementById('theImage').src = image1.src;
}

If that doesn't work then I am a retard.
