title: Is it possible to check whether a background image has been loaded using jQuery?
body: <p>I am trying to find out whether it is possible to check if a background image has been loaded before fading in the content?  The background image is set in the css so if the user doesnt have js turned on they are still able to view the site.</p>
  
  <p>I have tried <code>$(".quick-load").load(function () {
  $("#content").fadeIn();
  });</code></p>
  
  <p>I have also used .ready() but none have had any effect.</p>
  
  <p>The exact problem i am having is that the image will flicker on some occasions.  </p>
  
  <p>Any ideas would be helpful, thanks.</p>
