I'm not an expert in JS but looking at the code you have there it looks as
though the swapimage code is Netscape only. It starts with:

if (browserName == "Netscape" && browserVer >= 3) version = "n3";
else version = "n2";

and then proceeds to work for those browsers where version = n3. IE is never
going to show version = n3.

Bouncing text was positioned and worked exactly the same for me in both IE
5.01 and NS 4.7 (though whether I would call it great is another matter
;-)).

The dotted lined around the links in IE are caused by the link retaining the
focus after they have been clicked. To remove it include the following in
each image tag:

onClick="top.focus()"

Now they should have the lines only while you are clicking them, lines
should disappear afterwards.
