I have an odd problem. the question is not so much about specifics of the code, more to the general approach.
scenario: a website has a "welcome screen". The welcome element is an HTML5 EDGE animation (its not a small file ;) ) Using client side detection, we will check if cookies are enabled. if cookies are enabled, we check for a cookie['loader_shown']. if we dont see this cookie, we want to use JS to show a full screen overlay div half opaque. inside this div, we then want to use AJAX to load in the loading element html - at the moment this is defined in a seperate file, and of course refences other files in the EDGE file package...
Any suggestions on how best to approach this. it is important the HTML5 EDGE element is only loaded from the server once the welcome detection has oipened the first overlay div....
oh, the EDGE element must remain transparent!
