SEO & Web Marketing Forum

I have a small flash animation which plays through before the page background has even loaded.

The background is attached using CSS and I don't see an option to preload it in Dreamweaver as it doesn't see the image as being IN the page.

It has been suggested that I place it in an iframe but how do I set a delay on an iframe?

How well are iframes supported and do you use <noframe> content with it like you would/should with frames.
If there is a better solution to this problem I would really apprectiate hearing it.
