[Javascript] image preloading problems

[Cutter Bl]

The Scripting I sent you will size the window to the size of the image. 
Click on the picture of a catalog item at http://www.falcon-knives.com and 
you will see (some of the "large" pictures aren't so large. I kind of 
inherited this site and still haven't shot new pics yet)

ideally because i'd like to open the new window to the exact size of the
image file.  the images are all of varying sizes and i don't know them
ahead of time.  although i suppose i could just measure them and build a
database and do it that way.  seems like a drag.

the frustrating thing is that when it works it works really well and looks
very nice.  i'm loathe to give it up.

yeah i'll probably end up doing this.
