  1. All of the popular Javascript libraries have a ‘DOM loaded’ event you can use for this.

    Essentially:

    <html> <head>     <script>     // if using jQuery     $(document).ready(function() { $('#loading').hide(); });     // if using Prototype     document.observe('dom:loaded', function() { $('loading').hide(); });     </script> </head> <body>     <div id='loading'>Loading...</div>     <!-- rest of page --> </body> </html>
