Netscape and Images
Hi there, Im having a bit of trouble with Netscape. Say we have a site that shows one picture after another, the problem is that Netscape does not "dynamically" show the image at the correct size (ie if I display an image that is 300x400 initially then every other image I load, no matter what size it is will be placed into an area 300x400)
I have tried not having an initial image, but this just results in all images being displayed at the size of a thumbnail!, There must be a way of getting Netscape to do this correctly? (oh wait, what am I saying?, this is Netscape it's got built in S*IT to annoy you at every step of the development process!!!!!!)
So I have turned to you, oh my Brothers (and Sisters) please say you have conquered the Netscape wierdness, triumphed against the strange behaviour that is tables, beaten the beast that is layers and many other strange quirks and stuff that Netscape displays.........I'll shutup now.............
Any help would be great
Please tell me where im going wrong? It keeps coming out green......

Hmmm.. that's weird - it shouldn't be doing that. Can't you put height and width tags in every image? You should be doing that anyway. Maybe a URL would be helpful

why don't you just put the whole thing into an array? then cycle through that? that way you define each image individually.
This is probably how you've gone about it but, as megan said, if we can't see it, we can't say it!

You can see for yourself the problems with netscape http://www.titsirbum.com
Our images are rotated by a javascript, in IE works fine but as you can see netscape just looks pants (don't worry about the "scrolling" highscore table, all this will be sorted in the next version). I've been told that Netscape cannot actually "dynamically" detect the image size, which to me, seems silly. Surly they must have the same kind of standards as IE? I personally do not use netscape and so don't come across these types of problems when browsing, but for the select few out there who insist on using it it's obviously going to be a problem.
