I'm using a body onload event for preloading images, and it requires that the image src's be enclosed in single, not double quotes. I've tried using ezimage, but it doesn't seem to like single quotes.
Example: body onload="preloadImages('path/img1.gif')" becomes: body onload="preloadImages('{"img1.gif"|ezimage}')" which translates on the rendered page to: body onload="preloadImages('"path/img1.gif"')" note the nested quotes around the image, which doesn't work.
Is there a way to get around this without having to use full paths in the pagelayout.tpl file?
Thanks.RWW

Have you tried:
preloadImages({"path/img1.gif"|ezimage})
Ezimage will output a string with the quotes in place so you dont need to wrap the call.

I'll give it a try, but what then happens to the quote that needs to be before preloadImages and after the last ) ? You can't nest double quotes inside double quotes, and I don't think the preloadImage function will work if it's wrapped in single quotes.
Or am I wrong?

I use this in my templates :
onLoad='preloadImages({"roll1b.jpg"|ezimage})'
