I suspect that in the end any tricks you play will be just that - tricks. If you require certain information to properly render a particular part of the page then you should really generate that information before you render that part of the page. Perhaps using a function to extract the image you need as part of your navigation will work. > Or can I use some tricky javascript? I don't really know enough javascript to give a full answer but it's you might get away with having some sort of place-holder image (single pixel transparent gif perhaps) set up and then use an event of some sort to change it to the image you really wanted (not sure if an onload() type function would work here or if you'd have to do something else though). Check some javascript resources to look into that - I like www.irt.org myself for that sort of thing.
