Hmmm, fair point. We could recommend that users put in image dimensions, and if they do convert the inline images into iframe's. jSite etc could automatically put in any missing dimensions for inlined images that are on the same site. Of course this won't work for backgrounds, non-rectangular images (how exactly does wrap-around-an-image work?), etc. Is this solvable? Can you put an iframe in a layer behind another iframe? If not, we're back to my original conclusion: we need a browser plugin to handle the freenet: protocol. > > Cheers, > Michael -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
