performance - What is the best way to handle a lot of images from a shared hosting plan? -

-

i have shared hosting plan , designing single page site include slideshow. browser typically limits number of simultaneous requests single domain. don't expect lot of traffic, traffic receive have fast load times. may able add unlimited subdomains, affect speed customer considering 1 polling server , subdomains point same processor? have created 2 versions of every image, 1 slideshow, , 1 larger format via ajax request, lag times still little long taste. suggestions?

before contrive bunch of subdomains maximize parallel connections, should profile page load behavior know of time being spent. there might easier , more rewarding optimizations make first.

there several tools can this, use of them:

some important factors @ cache optimization , image compression.

if you've done things, , sure want use multiple (sub)domains, recommend using content delivery network (cdn) instead of hosting static files (images) on same shared server. might consider amazon's cloudfront service. it's super easy set up, , reasonably priced.

lastly, don't carried away many (sub)domains, because each host name require separate dns lookup; find balance.

Does Firefox offer AppleScript support to get URL of windows? -

-
i trying write applescript that, among other things, gets url of every open webpage in firefox. in safari (and chrome), done simply: tell application "safari" return url of every tab in every window however, seems me firefox offers no real applescript support, such getting url of tab or window. when google terms "firefox" , "applescript" together, firefox bug requests asking applescript support restored, last updated in 2010 or 2011 (like this , this ). am right in thinking, then, firefox no longer offers proper applescript support? realize there semi-workarounds, such simulating key-commands in applescript, aren't practical purposes. to see of applescript commands firefox responds to, launch applescript editor, select menu file > open dictionary... , , choose firefox application. you'll find you're expecting: firefox doesn't offer useful applescript commands.
