Well, I just wasted about 3 hours ... Was hiding/revealing layers and
swapping images within them. Rather, was trying to get it to work in
NS while beating keyboard on head and whipping self with mouse.

Pasting bits and pieces into a new document revealed that the
JavaScript error was my outer table:

<table width="596" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td valign="top"><img src="../i/giftshop_title.gif" alt=""
width="281" height="150" /></td>
<td>

[everything else here inside another table]

</td>
</tr>
</table>

Netscape 4.73 Mac OS 9 and 4.77 Win 2K.

I get a return of 'undefined' for typeof
document.layers[the_div].document.images[which] when that table is in
the HTML, Removing the table removes the error ... also works if I
combine the inner and outer tables into one.

I can't find mention of such a bug through Google ... ? Has anyone
come across this? I'm not insane, swear to god ... at least not about
this.
