I have form like this:
<form action="login_form.php" method="POST" id="login_form">
Email <input name="email" type="text" size="25" placeholder="type your email"/>
Password <input name="password" type="text" size="25" placeholder="type your password" />
<input type="submit" class="btn" value="" name="submit" />
</form>
and for submit button I use an image that is in my CSS:
.btnew{
background:url('img/login_button_1_1.jpg') no-repeat; width:270px; height:46px; border:none; cursor: pointer;
}
.btnew:hover{
background:url('img/login_button_1_1_light.jpg') no-repeat; width:270px; height:46px; border:none; cursor: pointer;
}
When page loading my form has as a submit button, the "login_button_1_1.jpg". When the user place mouse over the submit button, button changes to "login_button_1_1_light.jpg" successfully acording to my CSS. My problem is that the first time that the user places mouse over submit button, there is a very small delay until the image "login_button_1_1_light.jpg" appears. looks like it is not loaded with the page at the begining. Any idea how to fix this?

You can place hover image inside body
tag to preload it.
<img src="img/login_button_1_1_light.jpg" style="display:none;" />
