I suspected as much about the black gif with blue border (yes, it's
there). I have no idea why IE crashed while loading it otherwise I might
have been able to see the mouseover happen. NS did rather well by
comparison, but heck, anything is better than what IE did (thru AOL as I
said before I think). Wish I knew java script better, I looked the
source over and failed to see a problem. NS is not very "frames"
friendly, you may not have a solution except to exclude it using the
java to distinguish from it and setup an alternate entry page.
Frustrating, isn't it...?

I'll consider povray.teens topic closed then.
