This is how it works in IE 5 and NS 6 (using JavaScript); unfortunately I do not
know how to make the whole table cell clickable under NS 4.x

I have specified a width of 20% for all 5 menu tabs, but for some reason NS 4.x
does not respect this. It works fine under IE 5 and NS 6 - but again, I don't
know how to make it work right under NS 4.x... Any help would be appreciated.

Yes, perhaps I should make the code section work like the gallery section, i.e.
put an "up" button somewhere. I'm not sure, though. IMHO it is more convenient
to switch between subsections when the pull-down stays open. But I don't want to
keep it open for the gallery section, because the number of galleries is likely
to grow and the menu would start to take up too much screen space.

Probably a good idea. Perhaps I should add a "pull-down menu" to the links
section also?

Yes. This is easy to fix, I'll just remove the text if there is no link
available.
BTW, it's not JavaScript that changes the font and removes underlines from
links; its the style sheet. But when JavaScript is disabled, NS 4.x for some
reason also disables style sheets! Frankly, my respect for that particular
browser dropped several notches while designing the site. NS 6 is much better at
rendering web pages correctly, but otherwise the current version is still quite
buggy.

I can add image dimensions to the ALT text. But other than that I really don't
know what to do about this. There aren't any outrageously large pictures, most
are 800x600 or below.

Personal taste... I don't much like loud / bright colours myself (hell, most of
my clothes are black :)
Obviously I still need to increase the contrast, though.
