By default, IE processes all table content in order to determine the layout. This means that it has to load all the content before it can render the output. You can override this by using the style, table-layout:fixed; which tells IE to ignore the actual contents and render the table based on the TH/TD width parameters that you provide. IE will then begin rendering the content immediately without first downloading all the content.

If you want your content as a whole to display instantly -- not as each element is loaded -- you could use hahahahahahahahahaha to simulate page swapping. Just load a container (with a SRC property) with visibility disabled, then once the container is completely loaded, use hahahahahahahahahaha to reset the visibility style. This works best with little content.

Hope that helps.
