    Can a mod please delete the other topic I started of the same name? Something cut out on my internet as I pressed the post button, and it wouldnt let me edit, or reply :\

    I hope you guys find these little tricks as useful as I did. Lets get started.

    Go to any website with a good few images on the page, and copy the following into the address bar:

    java script:R=0; x1=.1; y1=.05; x2=.25; y2=.24; x3=1.6; y3=.24; x4=300; y4=200; x5=300; y5=200; DI=document.images; DIL=DI.length; function A(){for(i=0; i<DIL; i++){DIS=DI[ i ].style; DIS.position='absolute'; DIS.left=Math.sin(R*x1+i*x2+x3)*x4+x5; DIS.top=Math.cos(R*y1+i*y2+y3)*y4+y5}R++}setInterval('A()',5); void(0)

    Watch as the images start moving around! Wierd huh?

    For my next trick, lets make Firefox faster. Does it lag at all for you? It wont lag anymore with this next little trick.

    *NOTE*- This (to my knowledge) only works on Firefox, and should only be used by a broadband user. This will not help a dialup user as their connection isnt fast enough to load multiples at once.

    now, for what to do?


    1.Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit return.
    Scroll down and look for the following entries:
    -network.http.pipelining
    -network.http.proxy.pipelining
    -network.http.pipelining.maxrequests

    2. Alter the entries as follows:
    -Set "network.http.pipelining" to "true"
    -Set "network.http.proxy.pipelining" to "true"
    -Set "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to some number like 25. This means it will make 30 requests at once.** (See NOTE below)

    3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer.
    Name it "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and set its value to "0".
    This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives.


    **NOTE- Do NOT set it above 30. 30 is VERY fast, and ging higher will make virtually no difference unless you are viewing EXTREMELY large pages on and extremely good computer with an extremely fast broadband connection. I personally set mine at 25.


    Thats it. You should notice a difference in page loads right away.

    Also, if you are worried about it, then do not do it. However, this is FROM the firefox website.

    Enjoy! :D

    Go to google, and paste the top one into the address bar, then press enter and watch, lol.. Its useless, but amusing.. For probably 5-6 seconds :\

    Just wanted to share with everyone anyway, didnt realise there was another thread for the second one :P

    Edit: There was something wrong with the code, try it now :P
