Do you have access to a scripting language on the server where the file resides? If you do, get that to do the check for if the file exists and interrogate that instead. Maybe.

I know I can find if a file I want to load exists by using "onload" with "success", but there must be something more immediate. Using onload, I can'd determine success answer untill the file is completely loaded which is too long for my purposes. Anyone have a hack for determining if a file exists?
