Please can someone help me, I have created a navbar using CSS roll over images, but when you first open the browser and hover over the nav menu the images will go blank for a second before being replaced by the image roll over.
I have used the body onload function but it doesn't seem to work, please does anyone have any ideas?
CSS
#btn-home {
background-image:url(http://www.terrypowell.co.uk/images/...e-normal.gif);
background-repeat:no-repeat no-repeat;
display:block;
height:50px;
left:390px;
position:absolute;
top:80px;
width:77px;
}
#btn-home:hover {
background-image:url(http://www.terrypowell.co.uk/images/btn-home-over.gif);
background-repeat:no-repeat no-repeat;
display:block;
height:50px;
left:390px;
position:absolute;
top:80px;
width:77px;
}
#btn-about {
background-image:url(http://www.terrypowell.co.uk/images/...t-normal.gif);
background-repeat:no-repeat no-repeat;
display:block;
height:50px;

}
#btn-about:hover {

One thing that might help is to use a sprite. It's where you combine your regular and "hover" image into one image (usually stacked on top of each other. Then, in the css, you use "background-position" to move the background image on a hover. This way there will not be the flicker.
As for your question as hand, do you have the function MM_preloadImages() defined in your webpage? I know it's a dreamweaver function, but sometimes dreamweaver forgets to add it (if you undo or something like that).
