Hi Jay,
I'm using Mozilla 0.9.7+ (build 2002-01-14) on Win2K with a 1600x1200 
screen res.

The site itself looks fine (although I'm not convinced about the 
turquoise background on the table, but that's just me :o)  ).

> POP-UPS:

This works fine, but I noticed that when you open the new window and 
click to see the larger image, the Back button doesn't work so you 
can't go back to the description.  I think that this might confuse 
people.

> DROPDOWN MENUS:
>  Select a numbered page from thelist.

Works fine.  Maybe you could add a bit of JS so that the new page 
loads using the onChange event of the select, rather than having to 
click the 'go' button (but leave the button there for for browsers 
that don't recognise that event).  I sat for a moment waiting before 
I realised that nothing was happening and clicked the 'go' button.

Raj.
