Can I Make The Page Load First Then The Adverts?

[darkX3536]

This is so as sometimes, the advertisements seem to make my pages load unusally slow for pages with text only...

Thanks!

Not that i can think of html like any other computer language runs in a linear fashion. It just wont work any other way. The only way i could think of is to put the adverts below some of the text and use css to make them apear at the top of the page.

Whoa! That sounds really tough to code! And I thought CSS is not 100% friendly to every viewer?

Where do I start?

The only way I can think of is to put the CSS on a seperate page, and pre-load it.

@jdmaurer16
Do you mean like external css?
That seems like the only method for doing so.

You could use AJAX...
Page loads (no adds), done loading -> trigger a code to show adds -> adds load -> page is fully loaded

The problem with that is:
1. The user can disable javascript -> no adds
2. If you must put adds (add-enchanted hosting on x10 for example), you have to use the exact code, and that's not the one you'll need when you want to use AJAX to load them...

I have the same problem. X10 ads loads too slow. and I must place dat ads in upper part of page. It's make site to load deadly slow!

How to solve a problem? Any ideas?

u mean:

Preloading With The DISPLAY Property
  First, let's create a class with display set to none and add it to the HEAD section of the home page:
   <style type="text/css">
.hiddenPic {display:none;}
</style>

it's will work wit x10 text ads?

I'm pretty sure this didn't need to be resurrected. Closed.
