Unfortunately, the link is intranet. I could perhaps attempt to post the
skeletal code of the test version, if it's really required.

>From your earlier email I'm starting to gather that if an image is wider
than the width of the div (or even browser window), auto-fitting isn't going
to be a problem. So, if the image is smaller in width (like in my case),
should I guess there's no way to stretch it without CSS 3 support ?


Thanks,
Mathew
