Show Thread Enhancements - lazy load, load your page faster & save bandwidth

this mod is using jquery lazy load by Mika Tuupola. you can see demo at his site here

Lazy Load will delay the loading of images outside of viewpoint to make the page load faster. That is, images in the visible part of the web page are only loaded and remaining images are loaded when visitor scrolls down the page, at some times it can even helps to save bandwidth.

in template headinclude, add this code at the bottom

  
<vb:if condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'showthread'">
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.5.0/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>  
<script type="text/javascript" src="{vb:raw vboptions.bburl}/clientscript/jquery.lazyload.mini.js"></script>
  <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
      $(function() {
          $(".postbody img").lazyload({placeholder : "{vb:raw vboptions.bburl}/clear.gif", effect: "fadeIn"});
      });
  </script>
</vb:if>

copy jquery.lazyload.mini.js to your <vb root>/clientscript/ folder

thank you
installed ===> under test

[Plus]

Tested on FF (clean cache + firebug): all images (attachment thumbnails) loaded immediately after page load.
Looks good (fade in) but useless

Just tried this on my Battlefield 3 website, not doing a thing for me

Thanks anyway

Installed with thanks ...

I'm not sure if it's adding value and I don't have any tools to test it, so some method to be able to use a load test before and after install would be great ...

Appreciate the effort as anything that would help page loading or site optimization for us would be an excellent add-on .. :up:

Regards,
Doug

I don't know why but my Admin CP template is messed up after I uploaded the file.

copy jquery.lazyload.mini.js to your <vb root>/includes/clientscript/ folder

Where is this location? I'm not able to find a 'clientscript' folder inside of a 'includes' folder. There is both folders, but they are not with in one another as the instructions suggest.
