[TuxKart-devel] Latest News.

[Steve B. <sjb...@ai...>]

Progress Today:

 * All of Norman's patches are now installed under CVS, so if you
   have CVS running and CygWin installed, you can do the highly
   perverse thing of running a game based on the Linux mascot under
   windoze.

   Hmmm - on the other hand, the 'Blue Screen of Death' guy is someone
   who is pretty familiar to those Windoze users - so perhaps it's not
   so bad.   :-)

 * I've written a guide to generating your own tracks - that's up on
   the website.

 * I've split up the *huge* 'index.html' into a bunch of smaller pages
   so the web site is a little more 'navigable'.

Questions:

  Does anyone know what it is about an HTML document that makes some
  of them load all the text first - and fill in the images only when
  all of the text is up?

  All the pages I write seem to sit there loading images for an eternity,
  then pop up the text only when all the images are there.

  This isn't just a browser settings thing - some pages work one way,
  and some work the other.

  Since all my images are just eye candy - it would be nice if the
  text always appeared first so you could be reading it while you
  are waiting for the pretty pictures.

  I've never been taught HTML - or even read a book about it - I've
  always just copied the HTML I've seen in other people's web pages.
