hi ricardo, first of all, thank you for your time. Can you tell me which browser you used for the test?
preloading the images is necessary because the other alternative would be to not put the <img> tags in the dom and feed them via ajax, but then it would make the website content unaccessible for non javascript browsers. What i'm thinking is to actually have the img tags, change their src value to a generic placeholder and store their src attribute value in a dummy attribute. Then actually loading the images and when loaded, fill their path back in the src attribute. Don't know if it will work though. as for my bug, it is indeed what happens when clicking on the keywords that produces the hickup, but i can't seem to solve it. Still trying... thanks !
