Presentation Page before index.php

[eluser]ferex[/eluser]
Hi

is there a way to make a presentation page

like to have

presentation.php
index.php
...


so when I access the site it first goes to presentation
to choose the desired language accompanied with a nice logo image
and then, after a language has been chosen
the index page comes in


Another question please

Is there a way to while looking at this presentation page
the index is being loaded? to save time.


Thank you for reading.

In your default controller, create a function _presentation() to load the presentation files. Then in index(), check if the language has been set yet (I assume via sessions or cookies?) via an if/else. If the variable is not set, return _presentation(). If it is set, then show the index.

Thank you very much Andrew for your sugestion

I'll do that

is there an answer for the second question?

to preload the site while the presentation is being showed?

because i have lot of images

thank you.

Sorry i didn't even see the second part. I'm actually not quite sure what is the best method for this, as I have never had to encounter it in my work. The best thing i can think of now is having a hidden div with images that can load into the cache, but i'll leave it to other members in the community who might have experience with pre-loading.

Ok, thank you, once again.

Hope to hear some advice of that question.
