your best bet is to make the login page as lightweight as possible.
however, if you really want to try to implement a preloading mechanism then
you're stuck doing it with some sort of frame or iframe solution.
iframe
create a 1x1 pixel iframe in your page and set its source to the page you
want to preload.
frames
use javascript to document.write() a frameset if the requested document is
not within a window with a specific name. set the first frame to be 100%
and contain the originally requested document. set the second frame to be *
and contain the document you want to preload.
good luck,
