what tag/script is used to make images and pages download in ‘real time’, rather than having a blank screen until everything has been downloaded then all of a sudden the whole page appearing at once?
@CharlesFeb 28.2006 — #It's not a tag; that behavior is something that's built into each browser. I've some dear friends who work for Microsoft and one of them used to write Internet Explorer before the project was abandoned. There's a lot of politics involved in the decsion of just how to draw the page and the behavior is different even in different versions of the same browser.
There are, however, some things that you can do to speed things along. Don't use tables for layout and do specify a "height" and "width" for each IMG.

Abandoned? IE7 was released in it's second beta form a couple weeks ago- the project hardly seems abandoned from their developer blog (though it still doesn't comply with a number of "standards")
<EDIT> Nevermind... I just read on the same blog I referenced above that apparently it was abandoned for some time, and then reinstated for the development of IE7 (paraphrased from the current project manager of the IE team)
