Nope ! I got it too with 1.60b1. From "image gallery" and even from a
web page WITH images stored on my hard disk just for this purpose of testing.
Further, with the stored web page, clicking on one jpeg does not process
the others. I have to process them one at a time, or go to the directory and
run the "image gallery" option, then return to the web page. But my copy of
1.50src still does the job automagically in the same setup, just by clicking
on the .HTM file.
I wonder if it is related to the way 1.60b1 uses xswap memory ? As far as
I can tell, this is what has really changed in 1.60b1. It REALLY uses more
memory, I cannot even run dgi functions (like show mail folders) in the
conventional memory that still runs 1.50src. I have had to scrounge extra
conventional memory in my boot-up floppy, otherwise 1.60 will not run
properly. I now have 608 kb of lower memory, and when I am on-line with 1.60,
I still get the free DOS memory numbers showing in RED (!!!). :(
Sad to say, but if Arachne gets any bigger or hungrier for memory, I shall
fall by the wayside. :(
And I got plenty of RAM (32 Mb) on a 486DX2 @ 133 MHz.
But, then, pages are rendered quicker - if no images - by 1.60b1.
I guess its "swings and roundabouts".

Ron
