Is there way for force a browser to load swf files before other elements in the page

Is there way to get the browser to always load any swf files before everything else on a page (exept the external css and swfobject.js). Usin开发者_开发问答g Firebug's Net statistics I can see the swf files generally load last.

We have all our external js files inserted at the bottom of the page to help loading times.

If this is a little vague then I'm more than happy to answer any questions.

Many thanks

I believe it's up to the browser to load what it feels is necessary and in what order.

You've taken the first step; that is moving content to the bottom to load at a later point, however the saving wouldn't be detrimental.

Try using something like HTTP compression (gzip or mod_deflate for example), to increase the speed in which the user receives data to reduce the overall load time, as opposed to trying to load certain elements.
