Hi Rob,
Problem has been solved. It might be a quirk in IE6 with a nesting JS class
call. The problematic lines were:
<div class="col3 maxheight">
<div class="indent_col3 maxheight">
..... my content here for column 3 .....
</div>
</div>
"Maxheight" is called from a JS. By process of elimination, when I removed
"maxheight" from class "indent_col3" the static images appeared. As indicated
previously, this only applied to IE6. IE7 processed the style without any
difficulty as did Firefox 2.0 and Firefox 3.0.
I still appreciate the attention and effort you gave to help.
Thanks
Terry

Which picture? There is a flash animation at the top of the page, but the
static images display just fine.
If you are scripting the flash to control its display there are security
settings in IE to allow/disallow scripting of ActiveX objects.

What's your web site address where we can have a look at what is happening?

Post by Terry AllyHI Rob,
Thanks for your reply. Stylesheets are the most obviously place to look but
I've checked it, validated it. I am not running background-images in
stylesheets.
The other thing is that it is working fine in IE7 and Firefox but not IE6,
so I was hoping someone might have been able to point to some quirk in IE6
.... though I do agree with you that the answer lay in the stylesheet
but
if
there is some IE6 quirk then I would need to know how to work around it.

Post by rob^_^Hi Terry,
No. It sound like your stylesheets are the problem.
Carefully check your stylesheets for duplicate entries or incorrect syntax
for the background or background-image attributes.
That you images first appear, then disappear suggests that the image is
being set in one place in your stylesheet, and then being overwritten later
in the program flow of the stylesheet.
There is a setting on the Advanced tab of Internet Options to show pictures,
but this only affects <img> tags.
Regards.
Post by Terry AllyHi,
I am using IE 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_qfe.070227-2300.
I am currently developing a website and I have images and forms
which
appear
for a second or so and then vanish. The source code tells me they
are
there.
In IE7 they are showing up well, as well as in Mosaic. I thought at first
that it was something wrong with my CSS and I spent considerable time
tweaking the CSS to the point of removing the entire style sheet. When
I
do
this, it shows up.
Is there something quirky about how IE6 will interpret style sheets?
