IWeb make it load faster
Hi!
Could you please recommend me a program or give a solution how to make iWeb page load faster?
OMG, 14 seconds to load a template with some text on it... broadband 1mbps
I have already search half of the Internet but couldn't find any perfect answer at all.
I converted or png images to JPG and changed the filename back to .png (using automator). The size of files was smaller but insted of transparency I got white colour space. What is strance I didn't find any option in automator to convert to gif.
I have just tried to use some programs: PngOptimizer, PNGCrusher, OptiPNG, iWeb-optimizer, ImageOptim. Some of them doesn't work (Leo 10.5.6) others work not enough good. ImageOptim in my surprise compresed files saving up to 50% of original filesize... but 50% was only for files below 1kB, for those above 50 I get only 0,03%.
I can't wait to try your solutions.
I use Web Site Maestro which will optimize PNGs as well as everything else.

HOT TIP to make pages load faster (img background?)
OK this obviously won't apple to everyone but... I managed to DRAMATICALLY reduce the page load time.
Firstly, this tip is for you if you're using a background image on your page - in the content for example - where I'm using mine.
iWeb, for some reason known only to the developers, creates a PNG image the COMPLETE size of your web page!
So if you're site is 700px wide and you've got a lot of photos on a page then it could go say 3000px in height. iWeb will create a 700px X 3300px (or so) PNG with your background.
THIS WAS 1.4MB!!!! for me..... absolutely crazy!
They put in no-repeat on the background CSS.
So how to fix this...
It's actually quite easy
1) Publish to a directory
2) using photoshop or some other image editing tool that can open PNG files, open up the largest background_image1.png - largest being largest in px X px - e.g. 700 X 3300 is bigger than 700X1800
3) crop the image in width from 700px to 5px - yep you read that right - crop it to 5px!
(Now obviously this depends on the image you're using in the background but I am assuming that most images are patterns that repeat horizontally... if you have another image that repeats horizontally and is bigger than 5px then make the image as wide as your repeating image)
4) save the image as a JPG
5) open MassReplaceIt
6) create a query where you replace /background_image1.png) no-repeat with /background_image1.jpg) repeat-x
7) set it to update all HTML pages that use a background
8) copy the JPG to all folders that have the background image (unfortunately as the folder name is different it's difficult to just put the image in the /images directory - and i don't know how to use wildcards in massreplaceit - any tips welcome)
NOTE: I am using the same image background on all pages for consistency therefore I have the same filename - I am assuming that it's like that for everyone - the filename that is - so checkout that the replace will work for you.
Well hope that helps you - I managed to reduce the page load times dramatically and now I can actually consider using iWeb for generating pages for my family in Australia who are still on 56Kbit modems and don't have broadband available.
Cheers

Your entire home page is made entirely from
images.....consider using some
use of CSS and background colour, minimal graphics and some
actual text, and
you'll be a long way better off.

How can I make Privoxy load faster?
I'm using vimb and it works well except the only way to block ads is to use privoxy. Privoxy takes about 5-10 minutes to start after my computer boots. This means I can't access the internet when I first start my computer. How can I make it load faster?

IWeb loads slowly. How can I make it load faster?
G4 Dual PowerMac Mac OS X (10.4.9)
jcoda95:
See QuicktimeKirk's post about Poster Movies in this thread: Movies on iWeb. The movie file size is probably the prime contributor to the slowness of loading. Some other tips I've learned in the forum are:
1 - do not use and frames or borders, etc. around photos.
2 - don't use any reflections.
3 - create your own navigation bar with linked text* and turn of the iWeb Navigation bar. The nav bar is all png based.
4 - use only the web safe fonts from the Font pane.
5 - do not use drop shadow on fonts.
6 - turn off smart quotes.
7 - don't let text boxes overlap with other objects or put graphic files in a text box with the text.
The above will reduce the number and size of files associated with a web page quite a bit. Photos with fancy frames and reflections can generate a thumbnail png of around 110KB whereas the plain version will be a jpg of only 28KB. Although it doesn't sound like a lot, it can speed up loading of the page and be more darkside (i.e. PC) friendly. But it takes away some of the fancy stuff that iWeb can do.
Run a test with a test site and publish to a folder. Then follow the hints above and publish to another folder and compare folders.
*Put your linked text directly under the Navigation bar. Then turn off the nav bar in the Inspector window. The nav bar will disappear and the linked text will move up to the top of the page.

commit;Is there any trigger on the table you're inserting? You could consider disabling constraints (in case any exists) if you're sure enough of the data you're inserting and no one else "touches" the table while you're working on it.

Ways to Make Flash Content Load Faster?
Hello,
I have a site I am working on that has a couple of Flash
items. I have been told that they load too slowly. What are some
ways to make them load more quickly?
Thanks.Please refer to the topic "Not sure how i should go about
creating this flash to accomplish what i need." that was posted
yesterday. We discuss several ways to do this, albeit sort of
indirectly. That should give you more specific questions to ask. -
IWeb Site's Load Slow and Jump/Lock Up IE - Why?
Week 3 of trying to figure out why/how to get pages I created on iWeb to load like they do on Safari/FireFox. IE browsers either lock on loading my pages and/or are jumpy when you scroll the page.
Things I have done:
Changed templates,
Reduced the amount of graphics on the pages,
Ran Maestro (which tells me it only makes the site 29% faster)
Published to FTP server an not Mobile Me
Site originally created in '08 - upgraded to '09
published to server @ redmoonstudios.com
Here is what I started with: http://www.only2degrees.com/kktmp/Only2Degrees/Home.html
Here is what I changed to: http://only2degrees.com/Only2Degrees/Home.html
And pages on IE are still Jumpy! but do load faster than before...
ANY Suggestions, comments, help, critic I will glady take Anything really!
I am at my wit's end with this!
thank you!
Kerilyn
p.s. - whoever comes up with the solution that fixes this problem for me, I will happily reward with an iTunes Gift Card !!You say that optimizing only makes it go 29% faster. That's the difference between actually loading in IE rather than locking it up.
That cool browser background is going to slow things down a lot.
The problem with iWeb is that you can make really snazzy sites but IE can't handle them.
You really have to dumb things down - everything plain - no whistles or bells.
I've found the solution with my latest site. Its for musicians who want to build a site with iWeb so everyone will be looking at it on a Mac.
A couple of years back I read that the average surfer would wait for up to 7 seconds for a page to download. I tried to build a few that would do that in IE. I ended up with a plain white page, an image, a couple of icons and some text and optimized it with WSM and it just made it in time!
The main thing is to make your landing page as simple as possible. If you can get that to download fast and hook people in, you have a better chance of keeping them there even if the rest of the pages are a bit slower.
It looks like you're using the default iWeb page width. I would increase this to the "standard" 980 px and dump the browser background at least for your Home page. Use it on the pages that are mainly text.
The 980 px width fits a 15 inch screen which, believe it or not, a lot of people use and also translates well for iPhones - if you care. -
Good morning,
Is here any thing that I can do to compress my flash
document in flash to load faster or is there anything that I can do
in the html page to help my flash to load faster.
Thank You,There's nothing you can do in HTML. The best method to make
your Flash load
faster is to externalize the content - ie all images, text,
etc. can be
placed externally. You can also separate your movie into
different
areas/swf's. Instead of having just one swf, you'd have a nav
movie, and
various content movies that the nav movie manages. This is
how most pro
level sites are created.

I have just bought a movie and it says its going to take 170 mites to load. Can i make the loading time shorter?
Either by decreasing playback quality from HD to SD or HD 1080p to 720p.
Sounds as though your internet (like mine( is not fast enough for instant playback.
AppleTV need to buffer the video if internet speeds are below:
8 Mbps for 1080p
6 Mbps for 720p
2.5 Mbps for SD -
I'm interested in optimizing Faces tagging to get the Faces Library to load faster.
I've seen several forums regarding the slowness in getting Faces to load, primarily due to it needing to dynamically build the library each time it loads.
I'm looking for any helpful tips which "may" help getting the Faces library to load faster. Right now it's taking about 15 seconds to load.
Is the loading time based on :
* overall number of pics in the library?
* number of tagged faces I have on my corkboard?
* number of untagged faces?
Basically I know the number of pics has an impact, but I'm wondering if it helps to reduce the number of tagged faces, then I can remove some. Or if it helps to ignore all the faces which I'm not interested in.I don't know if this will be helpful but it sounds like you get the general architecture or the way Faces work but have not connected the dots so let me give it a try for you.
If you try to load global faces view but have many unconfirmed faces it will be slow. It will also be slow when you try to look at one face when there are many unconfirmed matches because Aperture is looking for all the possibilities in the entire library.
So...
To make it faster just confirm your faces don't leave a bunch of possibilities out there.
Also realize that you can use the faces view at any library level - you don't have to use it on the global view. For example, say you have a bunch of projects that have nothing to do with your family and a bunch of projects that contain family images. If you don't care about the faces in the non-family projects just create a folder, deposit all family projects and use the faces interface on that folder vs all of you projects. Slice and dice for whatever works for you.

How can i make my computer faster?
I recently have gotten my macbook pro just last month in june, and now it seems that certain things are really really slow. Comparitively, safari seems to be taking forever opening up normal pages that didnt take long earlier. i was wondering if it might be a virus slowing it down, but i see that there arent any mac os viruses known of. So i was wondering what i could do to make it run faster again.
you don't have a virus in your macbook......
you already have the best anti virus protection installed - it's called OS X Lion.
open up activity monitor and under all processes, see what's using up most of your % CPU. Hightlight the ones using a lot of your % CPU and hit quit process.
also see what's loading in your login items - delete the ones you think you don't need.
open disk utility and verify your disk then verify your disk permissions - repair if needed then restart your macbook.
also, how much RAM have you got installed?
good luck -
When I add pictures into MUSE , do the pictures resize for web quality (And so the page loads fast enough) or do I have to do this using an external software like photoshop, etc. ?
Also is there any way I can change the contact form email for all of my contact forms at once.
I have over 100 contact forms and i want to make them reach the same email anyway I can do that without going one by one?If you have placed the image in Muse using File > Place and then scaled the image down in Muse while editing, then Muse publishes/exports the scaled down/optimized image in final output. When using as a Fill, the output size depends on the Fitting option you setup in the Fill options.
As for the contact form email, you would need to specify the email address for each form individually. There is no workflow to edit the same for multiple forms at a time.
