Ah HA!
Thanks Jeff!! :-)
Here the result *on my machine*
Win 95 osr2.5 266MMX 128MB Ram
42.800 connection (this time)
IE 3.02 (4.70.1300) DID NOT render the image in a progressive manner.
_Nothing_ showed up until the entire image had downloaded.
NN 3.02b DID render the image in a progressive manner (very much like a
interlaced .gif).
I'll check my Win 98 laptop with IE 4.X in a little while.
Thanks again Jeff, that's a cool format - WAY overdue!!
SeaYa,
Fuzzy
