I currently have a preloading image javascript script:

function MM_preloadImages() {    var d = document;     if(d.images){       if(!d.MM_p )         d.MM_p=new Array();       var i,j=d.MM_p.length,a=MM_preloadImages.arguments;       for(i=0; i<a.length; i++){         if (a[i].indexOf('#')!=0){            d.MM_p[j]=new Image;             d.MM_p[j++].src= '/img' + a[i];         }      }   } }

The problem is that i have to manually update the array when images are added deleted etc.

Is there anyway of automating this or is there a library.

Most of the image urls are element hrefs.

Obviously I could write something server side but I want to check if there is something out there already.

  1. Here is someone who did what you are trying to do with jQuery:

    http://www.filamentgroup.com/lab/update_automatically_preload_images_from_css_with_jquery/

    Edit: Actually this is not quite what you are looking for as this preloads images from CSS files – I am going to leave this here in case this is still helpful.
