Google Analytics Asynchronous Snippet for the Head Element
No comments · Posted by Dave Smith in Javascript
The below snippet worked with my test page where the current asynchronous snippet when placed in the head element would cause IE6 to stumble with “Operation Aborted”. The test page markup can be found at the bottom of the post.
The snippet:

CSS :content and :section pseudo element selectors

Just had a thought that maybe the browsers could sort this out. A browser could detect when a JPEG is shown smaller than full-size and choose to download only what is needed.
For example, if a JPEG is displayed 100% or larger then the full image is downloaded. If displayed at 20% then maybe only the [...]
Not possible as far as I’m aware, but thumbnails do annoy me. Either they are processed smaller version of the full image – a form of duplication. Or the full version is used but displayed smaller – bandwidth, page loading times and browser image resizing beauty niggles.
Progressive JPEGs load progressively with each iteration enhancing the [...]
