Rails spinoffs - Feb 2006 - RE: Appending <tr>''s to Table - Images in<tr>''sloading slowly.

I tried the same thing Ryan - tried preloading the images using javascript once
and then using CSS (heights of desperate behavior ;)
But no Luck!

But, IE is misbehaving in this respect. The application behaves fine once
loaded. But, each refresh sucks!

Only if I knew why this was happening ... :)

Thanks anyway,
Mandy.

Hey Mandy,

I do know that, at least with images applied via CSS, IE refuses to used the
cached version if absoulute URLs are used. That is, never use
/var/wwwroot/images, but always ./images.

Also, check that the IE setting for reloading the page is
"automatically"
and not "every visit to this page".

A couple more resources:

http://ahinea.com/en/tech/ie-dhtml-image-caching.html
http://mir.aculo.us/articles/2005/08/28/internet-explorer-and-ajax-image-caching-woes

Most of the suggestions play with cache control header extensions. I
can''t
say which will work or not though. Good luck :).
