Larry,
When I drag a picture from another site I get a new window linked to my temp file. How did you do it, with a separate software? Thanks, Peter

<P><FONT face=Arial,Helvetica size=3>I caught this fish while I was on Cocos(Keeling) Islands. We were fishing from a welded aluminum 17' boat using stand-up gear. It was 9' long and weighed @130#. The Malaysian who took us out took the fish home and fed his village during a Ramadan evening feast. We were fishing in @6,000' feet of water about a mile from shore(it is an atoll) riding 25' swells which were @200 feet long. We were trolling a flying fish and when we went up the face of the swell we would slow down and when we went down the other side the bait would come up and skip down the face of the swell. It is an amazing sight to see a huge sail coming out of the face of the swell and gobble up the bait. It took 45 minutes to land this fish and it was completely out of the water tail dancing 5 times during the fight.</FONT></P>

Huh?

She no work for me...When I drag the picture in, it opens the jpg in a an empty window, and the address bar shows the path to my temp file.


I'm using Win '98, and IE 5.01.

Probably some obscure setting....

Ok the drag n drop internet link failed in Netscape 4.61.
How about:

<img src="http://users.massed.net/~lweir/striper.jpg"

[fishweir]

Ok I used the old "img src" with brackets html line.
That worked.

Pete,
I'm using Outlook Express and couldn't view the pic. Is anyone else using Outlook and having problems?
