HTML problem / question

[grumpy]

when you have a page wich is one big table, the page shows the moment all the items in the table are loaded. Can this be overuled by a tag or something. In a regular page you see the itemes loading. In a table he loads it first and then shows it.
I hope yoy guys know what i mean.
I need it to speed up the loading of my pages.

If you really feel like getting fancy try playing with layers. Youc an define what loads first and last. Preferably make ads load first

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.
