getting image dimensions

[gormster]

is there some way to get the dimensions of an image before it loads on to the page?

if you're wondering why, i need the dimensions for a script that runs at body onLoad but can't use the image.width and image.height properties, because at the time of loading they are undefined.

w/ javascript yu can preload images...this may be what you can do; however, i suggest you post in js forum where they can give you a better answer...in theory it seems like it wuld work because it preloads the images before showing to browser...it's here where you can capture the sizes for the function...

may wanna look over this:
