[NTLUG:Discuss] flashing page in browser...

[Fred James]

Has anyone else run into this?

The situation seems to be that if a WEB page has the same image shown
two or more times the page appears to flash (reload at high speed), and
in some cases only the top 1/2 or so is displayed (flashing).

One of my own pages to one image 3 times, which is how I got a clue as
to what was happening - I tried to fix the problem by using copies of
the image but that didn't work either.

The setup is a Dell Latitude C800 (850Mhz, 256 MB memory), Red Hat 7.2,
Netscape 4.76.

Same page(s) display fine on:
Compaq Prosignia 160 (300 Mhz, 162 MB memory), Caldera eDesktop 2.4,
Netscape 4.72.
Dell desktop (233 Mhz, 94 MB memory), Red Hat 6.2, Netscape 4.72.
(and of course, my older machines still running MS Win95:
 - 486, 50  Mhz, 16 MB memory, Win95 4.0.950, Netscape 4.04
 - P-I, 100 Mhz, 32 MB memory, Win95 4.0.950C, Netscape 4.77)
