FP2003. I've built a web site containing active graphics on the navigation column. My page used to load the alternative graphic quickly, right when I held my cursor over the nav link, but now it takes around five or seven seconds...I think the issue is related to the fact that none of the graphics are being cached so it has to always re download the image. Any ideas? (www.silverstarcabinets.com)

Hi Aaron,

We stopped using link bars with graphic content and moved to CSS based links bar. In fact, we wrote an add-in to handle the
conversion and to allow us to create new CSS Menu Link Bars.

Create fast, better scaling link bars with CSS Menu Maker

Tried of having to go to the menu bar to get a command or wishing you could have that command on the context menu?
Now you can with At Your Command!

Thanks for the heads-up, Mike! I'll take a look and see what I can do with the info you passed on.

I don't use FP 2003 but does it allow for "preloading" of images (presuming
"active graphics" are Frontpage's version of javascript rollovers). Otherwise
I'd just use javascript and get a preload-images script

try www.javascript.com
