Hi Art, I just checked the settings under Microsoft VM. I have "Java console enabled" and JIT compiler for virtual machine enabled". It wasn't working with those two. I just went and also checked "Java logging enabled" and it still doesn't do anything. Thanks for telling me I shouldn't have those checked. I had checked the first two last week in trying different things to make this work. Will uncheck them all now. I'll have to talk to my brother about the java scripting. We are each doing a different part of the web page. The slideshow is his and I seem to be the only one left that it won't work for. I had thought of Zone Alarm, too. Made sure the pop-up feature is off and still can't view the photos ........ Found it. I thought I had already tried turning Zone Alarm off before and it didn't work. But, just turned it off now and it works now. Problem solved. Thanks, Patty At 05:15 PM 7/24/2004, you wrote: >Patty, > >In Internet Explorer, go to Tools> Options> Advanced Tab.
