Is there anyway to preload HTML content?

 I am trying to cut seamlessly from video into an HTML object. To do this I need to preload the HTML object and pause it until it is time to play in the playlist. Thereby hiding the page load from the customer yet retaining all the timing on the css animations which start on page load. 

Can this be done?

    Hi Steven,

    Are you using scripts or is this through another tool?

    If using scripts then you can see the below documentation.

    I am going to move this into the general community. But the answer is yes. You can listen for events from an HTML widget for a load-finished http://docs.brightsign.biz/display/DOC/roHtmlWidgetEvent and then use hide() and show() to display the widget as needed http://docs.brightsign.biz/display/DOC/roHtmlWidget#roHtmlWidget-ifHtmlWidget

    Another way would be to put the HTML on a Images layer in the back, and put the video in another layer on top of the HTML layer.  Create a Full Screen PNG that is only transparent pixels.  Tie the Media End event to the end of the Video that links to the Transparent PNG, then at the end of the video, the Transparent PNG will show the HTML that is already loaded underneath. I have done something similar before.
