Sherri, Thanks...this makes more sense to me than anything, especially since I am a novice when it comes to writing and understanding code. I can make my images smaller for those who have dial-up connections and then if they want to click on the text below each image to make it larger, they can....at least this code works for me. I could never get the others to work...not that it was their fault because I am SURE I was doing something wrong. Thanks!!! >Today's Topics: > > 1. Re: Image code (Sherri ) > 2.
