image preload & mozilla/firefox

[Peter Fastré]

Hello

The javascript preload function I always used, is causing problems with
the latest version of gecko-browsers. Never had any problems with it though.
Maybe there's something wrong?

http://pfastre.no-ip.com/lunatis/

....

The javascript rollovers do work, but after the page is loaded (and
after the preload images script has finished!), the message 'Waiting for
....' or 'Transferring data from ...' still remains in the statusbar.

If I disable the image preload function, everything is ok. If I preload
only 1 image in this function, it's ok too.
Onyone an idea? I know it's not very dramatic, but I do want to have my
sites perfect.
I found lots of javascript preloaders, but they seem to do things the
same as I do. Maybe it's an incorrect setup of my webserver?

Regards

Peter
