 <blockquote> <p>I was wondering, is it possible to enhance the speed of a page loading by decreasing the size of images within the page? Would this be possible via jQuery</p> </blockquote> <p>No. This would require that the browser download the large image over the network and then process it to reduce it in size.</p> <p>If you want to speed things up, you need to make the images smaller before they leave the server.</p> <p>You don't need to do this manually though. Image resizing can be done programatically. </p>
