i only want to load the background of a certain div, not the whole page. i wasn't clear in my first post.

Thanks fris

That doesn't force it to load first though.

i think i have found it:

<style type="text/css">
.hiddenPic {display:none;}
</style>
<img src="poodle-puppy-Clara.jpg"
alt="Clara at 8 weeks" title="Clara at 8 weeks"
height="350" width="350" class="hiddenPic">

i tried it an it works, does anyone know if there are any problems using this code?
