Image loading

Hi All

Have just uploaded a website at www.courtpropertyservices.co.uk, and wonder if someone could tell me how I can make the top one of the two images on the right visible when the page initially loads.

There are three images in each stack, set with target show/hide layer action and a page sequence timer action.

Try selecting the Div cbf2dd80aco and send it to the back.Item>Send to back

Your main image http://www.courtpropertyservices.co.uk/Resources/3828983047_cbf2dd80ac_o.jpg appears on top of your sequence timer group on page load.

You could also shave some size off that image with a bit of jpeg compression to help it load faster.

Not sure if you have done it or not but if I have 3 images stacked for sequence timer then I duplicate my first one with no action applied and place it behind all the others so that it is always there behind. All the others on top have the action applied with the setting Initially Hidden.

Thanks Dave, have tried all this but even if I delete the whole of the countryside Div (was called cbf2dd80aco) the top stack still behaves the same.

And if I copy the bottom stack to a different part of the page, the copied ones behave the same at the top ones do at the moment.

Can we see a page where you have done this? Blank page with only this on it.

Thanks again, I have found the reason. The stacks of three were actually stacks of four boxes, with the bottom one in each set just being a box with a shadow, but also with the initial image in it too.

As the top three boxes in each set were set to initially hidden, the image first seen was actually the one at the bottom without an action applied, and on the higher set that image was behind the main page image.

on the higher set that image was behind the main page image.

Apart from that bottom image being behind your header image that is the way to go.

Glad you found the issue - it often helps to see this sort of thing by turning on Page View - click the header rail (Page/Site) at the top of the LH sidebar.

If you have named all your Divs meaningfully (like you appear to be doing) then it it makes it easier to spot. Items lower in the list are higher in the Page view stacking order - ie lower means on top of higher.
