Script loading time problems

[Eric]

Hi all,

Ive got a script that is taking FOREVER to load but it is my number 1 source of revenue so I have to keep it. Im only 24 and just starting programming classes so Im new on it and don't know the first thing about editing it, or even if it can be edited. I'll post it below so you can take a look.

Thanks in advance,

Eric

< script language='Javascript' src='http://www.bookhostels.com/files/index.php?UserID=backpackerdeals.com&File=smallhw'></script >

You'll have to remove the spaces at the beginning and the end.

I just need to know if there is anything I can do to speed it up. Im probably out of luck but I had to ask.

I just noticed it was java :? This means I have to contact the maker right?

the page you posted
http://www.bookhostels.com/files/index.php?UserID=backpackerdeals.com&File=smallhw
takes about 2 seconds to load on my poor internet connection (dial-up)
but il looks pretty bad.. i mean.. lots of slashes and no submit button
so i don't see the problem
About the programming language, what you have there is javascript, this is not the same things as Java.. it's.. simpler

Well if you can please take a look at one of my newest sites and tell me why it is taking so long to load. I use a T1 so I have no problems, but I get the e-mails about the load time. I didnt have problems before I added that script.

Thanks for your time

weird

i have no problems with your site.. it loads perfectly.. the script you used should have no effect on the loading time since it has no for / while loop to make the loading harder, maybe it's the browser??
I use Mozilla FIrefox and it works fine, this is a weird problem

Nov,

Thanks so much for checking on that for me. I trust your judgement, I personally havent had problems but cannot see what others are seeing, if you say its loading fine then I'll go with that.

Thanks again,

Eric
