Once upon a time Charles shaped the electrons to say... >WIDTH. People and authoring tools put them in, so that the page is >formatted correctly before the image is loaded. I ALWAYS use them, and I will always recommend they be used. Pages that do not are frustrating. Netscape won't paint the page until all of the images are downloaded. You have to wait just to know if you want a page. I can't count how many times a day I hit a page and click off of it long before all the images are there - only possibly because the author used the sizing tags so the text was rendered immediately and I could find what I was looking for without waiting for images. It would be a giant step backwards not to use them. -MZ -- <URL:mailto:megazone@livingston.com> Gweep, author, webmaster, human being, me <URL:mailto:megazone@megazone.org> H:510-527-0944 W:800-458-9966 510-426-0770 <URL:mailto:megazone@gweep.net> <URL:http://www.megazone.org/> Hail Discordia!
