| How do I make those "Menu Panel" effects down the side of the page? |
Put background="Mybackground.gif" in the BODY statement. Make your Mybackground.gif file, say, 20 x 800 pixels, with a block of menu color about 100 pixels wide on the left, and the rest body coloured, like this
The browser will "tile" this Pic until the whole page is covered and there appears to be a coloured panel down the left side |

|
| How do I preload the link mouseover pic to avoid any delay when the mouse hovers over a pic and while the pic loads? |
Here's a dead simple way to do it. AT the BOTTOM (so it loads last), of the page, put the GIF file you want to preload inside an <img> tag like this -
<img src="yourgif.gif" width="1" height="1">. This way the pic file is already loaded, but invisible; then when the mouse hovers over a link further up the page, it will display instantly. |
