What about taking the image and using the same background color behind it to
expand the image size of the smaller images to that size of the largest?
This seems like a lot of work, but may be worth it.  I haven't tried it, but
it seems like it might work.

Sorry to say it, but not that I am aware of!  I have tried several tricks,
but NN4.x seems to establish a size for the image and that is it, so either
make all the images the same size, or at least the same ratio, height:width
and load the largest first.

You could go to NN6.2 and see how it handles them!   ;>

Hello all,

I'm working on a site using a mouseover script that changes an image.
Works just dandy in IE, but in Netscape 4.x it has an issue.  The image
changing isn't the same size each time.  In IE they still show up fine, in
Netscape 4, the images all squash themselves into the same dimensions
as the first image loaded.  I tried passing the height and width and setting

these via javascript, but that didn't seem to work either.  Is there a fix
for this
other than having to reload the page?

Example at: http://bbphotos.miscsites.com/gallery/index.shtml

Any help would be much appreciated.
