Hi holygeek,
I don't know about iframes - I try not to use frames as they slow down web pages
but increasingly they are used . . .
Yes, i think they can slow things down, but i have no say in whether or not they are used. The content to be posted on the site comes to me already coded in iframes, which i then have to modify. Sometimes it is a mix of jscript and iframes that we end up using. Interesting to see that the coding i am getting includes language to address Opera. Haven't seen anything that explicitly mentions FireFox, but everything seems to work well there so may be the Netscape logic extends to FireFox?
One thing that may be of interest is this technology that allows documents
to be scanned and compressed

that would be quite specialised but may be of interest . .
It is interesting, and almost unbelievable that this can work as they say. Will have to take it for a test drive. I don't see how it is smart enough to separate out the background from the foreground. Even PhotoShop, once you have merged down the layers or flattened the image cannot separate out the background layer. But if this works as stated would be great.
Compression is pesky, especially when image quality suffers. Someone sent me an enormous tiff file last week, many MB in size, with dimensions of 1801x1803 pixels and i was supposed to massage it down to 89x89pixels, 72dpi, and under 38k in size AND maintain image quality!! It was a really good piece of cover art at full size and reduced it was a postage stamp and they said that their lettering looked "smooshed." I played around with it using 4 different programs and finally got something acceptable.
Happy November everyone.
love and peace,
joyce
