[Javascript] content preloader

Brian,

It isn't a javascript solution, but it should work.  Use css to define 
a background image for the image.  See the sample page below.  I tested 
it in Safari, but not in anything else yet.

-------
<html>
<head>
<title>Testing...</title>
<style type="text/css">
.bigimg {
	background-image: url(loading.gif);
	background-position: center center;
	background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<img class="bigImg" src="bigimage.jpg" width="200" height="200" />
</body>
</html>
-----------
