Hi Everyone

I have created a JavaScript application that requires all images to be preloaded first. Everything works fine in Firefox but in Internet Explorer my loop skips the count at 19 and goes to 21. Has anyone come across this problem before and what causes it?

You can copy and paste the script below for test purposes.

var preLoad = function () {
    var docImages = ["http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/rsa_prov.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/loading.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/loading2.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/ec_land.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/ec_roll.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/ec_state.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/fs_land.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/fs_roll.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/fs_state.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/gt_land.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/gt_roll.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/gt_state.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/kzn_land.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/kzn_roll.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/kzn_state.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/lp_land.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/lp_roll.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/lp_state.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/mp_land.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/mp_roll.gif", "mp_state.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/nc_land.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/nc_roll.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/nc_state.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/nw_land.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/nw_roll.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/nw_state.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/wc_land.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/wc_roll.gif", "http://www.sanatural.co.za/media/images/map/wc_state.gif"],
        imageFolder = [],
        loaded = [],
        loadedCounter = 0;

    this.loadImgs = function () {
        for (var i = 0; i < docImages.length; i++) {
            imageFolder[i] = new Image();
            imageFolder[i].src = docImages[i];
            loaded[i] = false;
        }
        intervalId = setInterval(loadedCheck, 10); //  
    };

    function loadedCheck() {
        if (loadedCounter == imageFolder.length) { // all images have been preloaded 
            clearInterval(intervalId);
            alert('All images have been preloaded!');
            return;
        }

        for (var i = 0; i < imageFolder.length; i++) {
            if (loaded[i] === false && imageFolder[i].complete) {
                loaded[i] = true;
                loadedCounter++;
                alert(i); // (work fine in FF but i.e goes from 19 to 21 )
            }
        }
    }
};


var preloadObject = new preLoad();

preloadObject.loadImgs();
