I'm not Mark, but I'll take a stab at it.  Apologies in advance for 
improper terminology.

Your page does validate as XHTML 1.0 Transitional.  There are no errors, 
but there are warnings.  e.g.  line 121 column 72 - Warning: <img> 
attribute "src" lacks value.

Since your page relies on Javascript to point to the photos, if 
Javascript is turned off your page won't work.  Try it.  In Safari on 
Windows it's at Edit-Preferences-Security.  Uncheck the Javascript box 
and reload the page.

For some reason, Firefox 3 isn't handling this as well as other 
browsers.  Perhaps the Mozilla guys decided to take a hard line on this 
instead of allowing some flexibility.  Who knows?  In the meantime, is 
it possible to tell iWeb to not use Javascript in your web pages?
