Preloading webpages?

I am new to web page design and Dreamweaver so my question might seem a bit simplistic. My problem is with the new web pages I have designed. Specifically with how they load. I have to sit and watch as each element is essentially built into the page whenever I go to a new page. Is there a command that will leave the browser on the current page until the new page is completely ready to display? Thanks for your help
