PhotoGallery duplicates text

For no apparent reason, some, but not all, of my FP pages
with a Photo Gallery included start repeating
information. In every case it is information that is
included in an area before the gallery is displayed. I've
check the MSKB and can't find anything on it.

To see what I'm talking about go to

Note that the information displayed before the gallery
has only been entered once in the HTML, but is displayed
twice on the page.
 
Eleanor,
Thanks for directions to your site, which is interesting,
but I didn't find anything that specfically addressed the
problem.

My apologies for the link that wouldn't load. The one
included in the original message was for a page that I
was working on as a substitute. Try this one:
http://squawk-
flash.org/619th_tcs/paddy/paddy_photo_album.htm

I noticed in looking at the page this evening, that I now
not only have the duplication at the top of the page, but
the footer (which is an include file) is also duplicated.
 
The page looks just fine. I see no duplications! Maybe you've been working
on it? I do strongly suggest that you optimize the full sized photos so that
they will load much more quickly. A target size would be no more than 50kb
per image.
I also looked at your home page and suggest that you need a margin on the
left side so that the links aren't touching the edge! The very light grey
for the text links on the whole page is too light for these old eyes and
doesn't change color when hovering over them (But I do not mean to imply
that you use hover buttons!!) And how about some alt text for the Symbols,
citations etc??
Very nice use of Red, White and Blue.
FP photo galleries are just plain quirky!!! I suggest other ways to present
galleries. Here's the link if you haven't seen it already:

Let me know how this all turns out please.

On second thought I would suggest that you not use the Photo Gallery
component if you're going to present many photos. Do you know about Spawn?
http://www.jimcoaddins.com/ which will make thumbnails to larger versions
.... much better. Others I have helped have found this useful.
