Hi Why not make the background image of the <li> the same as the hover. That way it preloads itself?

The problem only happens when I have different images for link and hover, and a background image for the #menu. The problem has been there for a long time with other sites, due to the busy schedules and deadlines I decided to ignore it because, after all, the menus are working - sites were up for months and nobody complaints. Nonetheless, I know how annoying it is. Was working on a new site using the same menu code, the annoyances suddenly becomes so big that I can't stand it anymore. I suspect it's something to do with caches yet I don't seem able to find what causes the problem. Symptoms are random: empty gap, hover image disappears or white space occurs, when either of these happens, I move the cursor to the next menu item, come back again and it gets back to normal state. Can you be so kind look at my code? http://gb.lotusseeds.com/menutest.html http://gb.lotusseeds.com/menu_test.css THANK YOU tee ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ****************************************************** ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
