I'm looking for a Javascript function that will display a loading icon in place of some large images I have on my website.
On a slow connection the large images take a while to load and I need something in place of those images until they have loaded fully.
Im trying to add some simple display features to a web application and am running into some unexpected IE8 behavior. Basically, the app runs some database retrieval from the server using Ajax techniques, and during that time (say, 30 seconds), I want to just give the user a clue as to whats going on. It could be as simple as a wait cursor. More interesting, I prefer to unhide a div with an animated loading icon, then hide it again when loading is complete.

I have a site that is very jQuery and image heavy. The main sections of the site link to sections that are built with several Tabs, and as it loads, you briefly see all the content load and then it is hidden by the Tabs code.
The plan is to have a full window DIV that sits above all the content with a loading icon that plays until the entire page loads, and then it fades down.
After some hair pulling and research I have code in place that does exactly as I ask, however it does not seem to work in IE6+7. It works in all other browsers.
The current code is:
CSS for the loading DIV is:
A working link is [url]
I have a lot of javascript functions that request information from an iframe hidden on the page. I see other sites do this, but their browser does not do the loading action (like the processing circle in Firefox). When I do it on my site, each browser shows the loading icon, as if a page was loading. Is it possible to not have this?

That is a sample link. Go down right side of page where you see three buttons: Trailers Featurettes Clips.Those return iframe information to work.
This thing is being seen on many websites...! while page is loading.. user see a page loading Icon until the page loads..! i dont knw wht exactly it is called.? some links or script so that i can us e it for my page..!

Basically it picks up HTML tags with a specific classname and after the page is loaded it creates a small portion of HTML to create the desired effect. The problem is that it only does it after the page is loaded, which I am fine with it, but before that, the contents of that same div (that come from a SQL query) are not formated and the page just breaks apart untill the document is fully loaded (my current workaround is an overflow:hidden but...it is still ugly to watch), and only then it adjusts itself due to the right CSS propreties.
Now, it would be great if I could just have a loading icon showing up inside the div while the page is not loaded, so I can manage to hide that Javascript HTML injection process.
I have a function that displays a loading icon just before the ajax call starts, but I wanted to display that icon only if the ajax call takes longer than 3 seconds. My question is: How to implement a counter after the ajax call?
Code:
I wrote a little jquery that will rotate through images automatically and when you click on an it's icon. If I let the rotator cycle throught the images everything is fine, but when I click on it's icon, the div tag that holds the images gets space added to the bottom and I can't figure out why? I tried everything css related so this appears to be something jquery related.
Here is the code that is used for flipping through the images:
$("#button2").click(function(){
$("#block-block-4").fadeIn("fast");
$("#block-block-3, #block-block-6, #block-block-7, #block-block-8").hide(); });
I am using multiple instances of the jquery datepicker on my form. Due to my CSS i could not use the icon trigger built-into jquery, it caused the icon to be displayed below the input field and i wanted it to be displayed next to the text. Below is the code for one of my input fields.
[Code]...
I have multiple date fields i want to use the datepicker with. The issues i am having are; 1. when i click on the icon to display the datepicker, the picker is displayed, but it displays on the wrong icon. No matter what icon i click on it always gets displayed on only one and it is always the same one. Each field has its own unique name and id the only thing that each field shares is a class. I can't seem to figure out how to fix this. My other issue is that when i click on the icon the page scrolls to the top, so if i am clicking on a picker icon at the bottom of the screen it scrolls the screen to the top.
how do I change my html/javascript so that if I drag and drop a link from a webpage to
the desktop in such a way that the name of the shortcut created is not the URL of the link but the link itself?
e.g. if the link is
<a href="http://www.microsoft.com"> MS </a>
then the name of the desktop icon should be 'MS' and not
http://www.microsoft.com
I'm having difficulty loading images via Ajax on a site that I've been working on.I'm performing the ajax by using the Request.HTML object of the MooTools framework. Basically, I'm just passing some parameters to a php script which outputs some image tags and then I insert that HTML into a pre-defined content div. For some reason though, it seems that big images don't seem to load consistently when using this technique. Usually, they will just show up as broken images, but when I navigate to the url of the image that is 'broken', it displays just fine. Also, occasionally after navigating to the actual url of the image, my browser will cache the image and then it will display just fine when loading it through Ajax.

I can't just put the loading gif behind the images (as you would normaly) because you can see it with each image fade in and out. how I can have a loading gif show "only" while the images are initially loading, and then it goes away?

but images are not downloaded until the app needs them later. Something wrong ? I thought they should be downloaded earlier?
I feel like a complete fool! I should know the answer to the Q:
How do I load an image with JS and replace the default image?
Some background: My final objective is to have a web site where it
is VERY difficult to copy images off the site. The first thing I
was going to do was force folks to turn on JavaScript so that I
could disable the right click pop up menu. To force this, I thought
I would have all the default images say that JavaScript is required
to view the images. The problem is that I cannot figure out for the
world in me how to load the good image.......
I am currently using the scrollable jquery plugin to scroll some images of thumbnails in a gallery. What I'm trying to do now, is figure out how to load the large version of those thumbnails into a div when they are clicked.
Here is a link to the webpage where the source can be viewed. [URL]
I want to pre-load images for my gallery, but I'm not sure of the best way to go about it. Currently, I have php code that generates thumbnail images on page load and while this works fine, it at times can be very time consuming. For reference, below is my php code. how I could/should pre-load images?
<div id="galleryReel">

I have some rollover images on my website, and they don't switch until the page is finished loading.Is this standard? Is there a way to have the rollovers work when the page is still in the process of loading all the images?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn my website I constructed a script that changes the image.sources of several images. The changes are made by calling a JS-function. The function is invoked by selecting an option in an html-form. In my second post below I pasted the code.
The problem is that each time the images are changed the browser starts to load them all again, although all images were PRELOADED in the <head> section of my HTML page. It takes time every time a user invokes image changings, and also the visual effects are worsened.
How can I prevent the browser from loading the images again each time?
I am using Lightbox v2.04 with ASP.Net 2008. The issue i am finding is that the images that are controlled by the java script are not loading if the page is in a sub folder. I have my main folder that contains a folder for my java script folder, a folder for my images, and a folder that contains some pages.
This is the code in the lightbox.js file that i believe may be the cause.
LightboxOptions = Object.extend({
fileLoadingImage: '../images/loading.gif',
fileBottomNavCloseImage: '../images/closelabel.gif',
Is there something specific that needs to be done so that the pages in the sub folder can have this work?
I would like to display a different set of images each time a person visits a web site. I have seen this done in many banner advertisments and product photos. Can someone tell me how this can be done with Javascript?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am currently working on a new tool that changes the websites header based on the option from the navigation list the user clicked on, so far so good.But now I want to make this easy to maintain so that the class name of the list retrieves an image from the folder with the exact same name, so eventually I would only have to insert the option and the image is automatically loaded.
View 4 Replies View Relatedfor the last day and a half i've been attempting to prevent images on a page from loading. i do this by calling a domready function. i just need this to work in firefox, so i'm using its DOMContentLoaded event. however, for troubleshooting purposes i have opted off the domready stuff and simply placed my code at the bottom of the html before the closing body tag, which does the same. my research shows that all the lazyloading techniques (which at the core are similar to what i'm doing; ie, preventing an image from loading) that do not rely on creating a custom attribute for the img tag, do not work. jquery's lazyloading plugin does not work: [URL] mootools' lazyloading plugin does not work: [URL]. however, they must have worked at one point. read the latest comments on lazyloading techniques online and you'll see that mostly everyone suddenly is unable to achieve lazyloading on their site. the only effect one achieves is that the image fades in when scrolling down, however it has already been downloaded when the page rendered, but it should only have been downloaded from the server once the scroll threshold for that image is hit.
calling a function to replace images with small placeholder images immediately after the dom loads (ie, before the full page loads) should work. this should prevent the loading of the original file in the src attribute, but it does not. i'm using firefox 3.6.3, but it happens on webkit browsers as well (though this is a documented bug); opera, however, works as it should. i did my research pretty thoroughly, but if i missed something
