This has been discusses several times in the past, for a complete solution LOT of work would be needed (a complete javascript engine would be neccessary for a starter), also there are several semantic problems (for example if a pic is laded only during mouseover, without preload, we still would not get it, since there is no mouse). Possibly some very partial, incomplete solution would be possible but frankly that would be an ugly hack. Heiko
