However if I highlight and copy the frames to Word the pictures show
up. What am I doing wrong?

Hi,
I suspect that the problem is that the page was
<!-- Created from PDF via Acrobat SaveAsXML --> (from view source)
also <META content="Adobe PageMaker 6.0" >
Mozilla & Firefox displayed the images OK. IE6 apparently isn't handling
some aspect of the page or images. I don't know of a workaround.

This may be related to the XML/JPG problem discussed in these threads
http://groups-beta.google.com/group...lorer.ie6.browser/search?q=xml+image&start=0&
but I didn't see references to XML in the binary code of the first image
http://www.foxtango.org/FRoG-7700_img_0.jpg I didn't examine all images.

Probably not causing the problem, but *large* images were resized via HTML
on that page, resulting in a large, slow-loading page.

The moral of the story may be that Adobe Pagemaker shouldn't be used to
create HTML pages. ;-)

Hope this helps,

I forgot to mention that it worked with Firefox for me too. So much for any
one browser?
tnx

FWIW I didn't have any trouble with the first few images.
I had some classic Red-X symptoms with the last ones though.
Initially they were Red-X and had not downloaded.
When I tried using right-click, Show Picture the Red-X were
replaced by the background and I couldn't tell if they had been
downloaded (forgot to check with the TIF viewer.) Then when
I re-rendered the page (e.g. with Alt-Home, Alt-F,W, Alt-CursorLeft)
(some of) the ones which I had used Show Picture on were
now rendering properly and some were back being Red-X.
I was able to repeat the process and eventually get the whole thing
downloaded. Comparing source with the list in the TIF viewer then
showed a match: 14 src= .jpg plus 1 .gif for background= .
