 * Original from: http://brainerror.net/scripts/javascript/blendtrans/demo.html
 *
 * Edits by ASC:
 *   - Removed unnecessary OO code that caused MSIE to choke
 *   - Added pause between setting bg image and setting opacity to zero to
 *     prevent MSIE image flash
 *   - Increased opacity check argument to 103 for completely smooth fade
