I have a JavaScript that checks for a cookie and a valid value in that cookie. If it finds neither it redirects the user to another page.

The problem is that if I can hit stop before the redirect occurs (which takes a few seconds), I can view the page I'm supposed to be sent away from.

Is there a way I can 'preload' the java script so that it will check for the cookie *before* the rest of the page is loaded? It is already in the <head></head> tags...

Thanks!
