Preloader question

I would like to have a preloader that sits on top of a webpage and allows the
user to see how close to finished the webpage is to being loaded in terms of
percents or bytes out of total, etc. I realize that most web browsers have a
status bar in the bottom of them, however I would like something a little more
descriptive and usefull than this, as the status bars don't even seem to always
show load status correctly. I know of javascripts for preloading images, is
there anything for a preloader for the entire page including Flash movies,
images, text, etc? Thanks for any help!

Have a look at the gauge extension on www.yaromat.com
