I have a JavaScript slideshow (copy/pasted from another site) that looks 
fine in IE 5, but looks horrible in Netscape 4.7x. It seems to me that 
Netscape caches the pixel height for the first image in the slideshow, then 
either stretches or shrinks the following images to conform to that height. 
This makes for some really ugly images if they happen to be significantly 
different in height to the first image, and I'd rather not have to resize 
all of my images to make them the all same height. Can this be fixed in 
HTML, or is this a congenital defect in Netscape? Or is this maybe a 
JavaScript problem (I haven't learned enough about it yet to tell) that 
only shows up in Netscape? The page was hand coded in Homesite, so it's not 
a WYSIWYG editor problem.

Any ideas...?
