I have to agree. I get the same in Moz 1.7.12, FF 1.5.0.1, and IE6.
However, it doesn't work that great in Opera.

Time for a change

No problem here either. A new image gets loaded every time you zoom or
pan the image.

Check in about:config if dom.disable_image_src_set is set to false.

All-

My original post emphasized the wrong things.

The problem I am trying to solve is:

"It worked in Firefox 1.0, but it does not work in Firefox 1.5".

If I have issues in other browsers this may or may not help me solve them
but that is totally outside the scope of this query. I am really hoping to
find Firefox specific knowledge of what changes between 1.0 and 1.5 could
have caused this.

BTW the application does currently work. The difference between FF 1.0 and
1.5 is qualitative. The quality of the animation in Firefox 1.0 is much
better than the quality in 1.5

Thanks to everyone for taking the time to compare with alternative browsers.
I really should have left them out of the discussion entirely though and
would really like to talk about Firefox.

TIA
