Hi, I am still very new to Ruby on Rails, but I'm busy with my first RoR website, everything went well, until I realized that my images didn't preload... On previous websites I used a simple JavaScript preloader that seemed to work very well:
function preloadImages() { if (document.images) { var imgFiles = preloadImages.arguments; var preloadArray = new Array(); for (var i=0; i < imgFiles.length; i++) { preloadArray[i] = new Image; preloadArray[i].src = imgFiles[i]; } } } And I called it from within the HTML: <body onload="preloadImages('/images/home.png',....etc....) This is how I called the image rollover in the Rails code: <%= link_to(image_tag('home.png', :mouseover=>"home_ro.png"), '/', {:controller=>'home', :action=>'index'}) %> Can anyone please tell me why this didn't work? I also heard that Prototype has it's own built-in image preloader, is this true? Thanks I really appreciate your help! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
