Because processing of percent values was never was specified properly in HTML4, and browsers never handled it interoperably (or at all), especially for the case where you have both width and height values specified. Try doing using width="75%" height = "75%" and compare the rendering in several different browsers. --Mike -- Michael[tm] Smith http://people.w3.org/mike/+
