I looked at several sample galleries, they take a long time to load in Netscape 4.x (almost a minute) In IE they are OK.
One thing that would help pages load faster both in Netscape and IE is if you added "img src size atributes"
PHP can do this for you easily with
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.getimagesize.phpIndex 3 is a text string with the correct height="yyy" width="xxx" string that can be used directly in an IMG tag.
Example 1. getimagesize (file)
<?php
$size = getimagesize ("img/flag.jpg");
echo "<img src=\"img/flag.jpg\" {$size[3]}>";
?>
If the image is 100x200, $size[3] will return:
height="100" width="200"
