jQuery Cycle - IE tries to re-download images?
Hi all,
Has anyone noticed if IE (I'm IE8) tries to redownload the images on each cycle / transition of jQuery Cycle?
The lower right corner of IE8 shows "Downloading:" whenever a transition starts.
I'm curious because I launched a new company website with jQuery cycle and it all worked fine. A short time later, the images stopped showing up. I spent a lot of time checking my CSS/HTML/JS to find out if something changed.
However, what I discovered is those rotating images were blacklisted by our companies Internet filter. However, only those images using jQuery cycle.
I'm speculating that it might have to do with IE trying to re-download those images on each cycle, and the filter getting triggered by a lot of image requests for the same images.
I am checking our IS dept., but I'm tossing this out to the community to see if anyone experienced something similar.
Cheers!
