Hi,

On my page, I have a table with 3 columns. The important one is located in the center, the others being helping pictures. I would like the “important” column to load first. I figured that one needs to define the table size in height and width. This is done. I also thought that iframes would be best for the side colums. This is done. But I cannot figure how to specify that the first column content should load first and then, and only then, the side iframes…

any idea ? Thanks in advance !

wahhooo... you are too good for me ... Leaving the iframe src empty, I get it. But how to create an "onload event" and where to place it ? At the very end? could you spare a couple of minutes and give me a tinny exemple ?

@gil_davisApr 11.2007 — Place it in the <BODY> tag.&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
function changeIframeSrc() {
document.getElementById("iframeID").src = "http://www.whatever.com";
}
&lt;/script&gt;
...
&lt;body onload="changeIframeSrc()"&gt;
You may have to use the window object instead:
window.top["iframeID"].location.href = "http://www.whatever.com";
