I was reading, "Use CSS Images instead of IMG tag: An easy way to speed up the rendering of an image is to simply call as a background of a div tag.", and elsewhere that if you use CSS for images the images will come up last (after your text), which is what I want.

But I don't want to load up my css page with a long list of images (40), becuase the CSS page is loaded into the visitor's browser, and so will slow the length of time it takes to bring up my site. I really don't want to use sprites. Isn't there a way where I can load the images into a PHP includes file and refer to the includes file in the CSS, but what code would I use in the main coding (HTML) from page to page to to bring up the different images for different pages?

Thanks for the help,

Rex
