Preload Image in Docwrite

[Bruce]

I'm looking for an example of using a single preloaded image, where a
few images are loaded in a document.write.

Can anyone help with a simple example (as I'm still a novice in
javascript).

TIA

You cannot load something "in" a document.write.

What is the purpose of your quest?

Perhaps you can refrase youe question?

document.write is mostly only useful when the setup(!) of a page should be
dynamic. Dynamic image preloading does not need document.write.

I have a working page that uses a mapped image. When the user presses
one of the mapped areas (call them buttons), in some instances another
image (one of a few) is displayed (using a style sheet) and some text
appears (also using a style sheet). The trouble that the text appears
before the image, and that is why I need to preload those image(s), so
both appear at the same time. I am using document.write( s) to display
the second image (one of a few) and its accompanying text.

You cannot use document.write when the page is finished without destroying
the finished page and its script.

So better change the src or the innerHTML of a finished container:

<button onclick="docume nt.getElementBy Id('ImgPos').sr c='/img/New.jpg'">
change image</button>

<img src='/img/Old.jpg' id="ImgPos">
