Ricardo,
Thanks so much for responding. That's very helpful. My use of events has
been very rudimentary so far; your .bind() example has helped me
understand them more fully. And now that I know what I'm looking for,
various approaches to the problem have been illuminating as well.
for example ajp's recent thread::

Try this:
el.find("#pic")
.attr({"src": pix[imgName].imgSrc, "name": imgName})
.bind('load readystatechange', function(e){
if (this.complete || (this.readyState == 'complete' && e.type =
'readystatechange')) {
el.fadeIn("slow");
$("#loading").hide();
};
});
The onload event for images is a cross-browser mess.
