    Anyone know how to create a loading bar for a webpage
    One of those things that goes from 0-100% when the page is loading

    I'm fairly new to web design so any help would be great

    The site is here and I wanna put one in between the Enter page and the main page. Or at the start would do - the pages are very slow to load ye see.

    Cheers

    Hi Smiler,

    From looking at your site, I would recommend that you change the size of the images rather than worrying about a loading bar - your animated gif is over 100K, also the other pictures are quite large - surly that size can be reduced?

    I didn't find a single lag on the site apart from the header images after entering the site, I cant see where you would put a loading bar though. sh_o is right about making the gif smaller, but also if it were possible to prioritize the header to load first and then the animated gif it would sort the problem out, they dont seem to begin loading until after the gif ends.
