Re: Re: Mangling HTML to protect content, and finding stolen HTML content

I'm fortunate enough to have DSL, but for the majority of Americans (dunno about the rest of the world), waiting 5 minutes for all the 'text' graphics to load over their good old analog modems might make them think twice about shopping there. Broadband is nowhere near universal in the US.

I don't have DSL, either. I know its an issue, but if the graphics have low enough resolution, they can be pretty fast. In fact, I have seen some graphic sites faster than some HTML if the HTML has lots of complex rendering to do. It may take some experimentation to find the best mix of graphics and html, but these days some graphics seem to load very fast, even over slow links. --traveler	[reply]
