Animated gifs in tables

I have created my first web site with FP2003. All the pages are table based, with a header cell, a navigation cell on the left, and a content cell on the right. In the header cell is two animated gifs. One of the gifs loops continuously, one loops once. When I change from page to page, both gifs start again (of course). But I don't want them to do this.

How can I get around this

I have experimented with frames and found that I can put the gifs in a header frame and only change the contents of the contents frame when the user clicks a nav link. This works pretty well but the layout of the web page gets all screwed up as I change the size of my browser.

I am not sure frames are worth the trouble. Is there any way to prevent reloading of these gifs other than use frames

Use a different header cell on subsequent pages,
with non animated images.!!

Hi steve

I could do that for the gif that loops once. But the other gif I want to run all the time and not restart.
