Hello,
I am trying to preload some images using either one of the functions
below. They don't seem to load. I really could use your help here.
/// version 1
jQuery.preloadImages = function()
{
for(var i = 0; i<arguments.length; i++)
{
$('<img>').attr('src', arguments[i]);
}
}
/// version 2 (not quite like the original)
jQuery.preloadImages2 = function(){
var args = arguments;
$(window).bind('load', function(){
var preload = new Array();
for(var i = 0; i<args.length; i++){
preload[i] = args[i];
}
$(document.createElement('img')).bind('load', function(){
if(preload[0]){
this.src = preload.shift();
alert(this.src);
}
}).trigger('load').appendTo('#imagePanel');
});
}
I then call one of those functions before the document loads, passing
the desired image pathnames as arguments:
$.preloadImages(
"img/cedefop.jpg",
"img/cedefop5.jpg",
"img/sap.jpg",
"img/igme5.jpg",
"img/naxm.jpg",
"img/olymp.jpg"
);
...and then i try to append the preloaded images to a div element:
$(document).ready( function(){
images = $('img');
$('#imagePanel').append(images)
});
The images will not load. What is wrong here?
Thank you,
