Right.You are ahead of me here.Note, FWIW: I did notice somewhere on the MS/IE site (while in a hurry about something else)  that (IIRC) IE10 (IE9 already?)  will/does support I forget what technology (JS-based?) mechanism to serve ONLY the right files/images *according to the media queries*.  Maybe that will catch on and get rolled into the other browsers soon enough?  Anyway it is worth noting, and also pleasant to imagine that things go the way of "save the devs from even more headache/complication".  On that last, more personal/human note, I also enjoy watching the handhelds slowly gain ground to match the specs we enjoy on desktop (to whatever extent).  I try to balance 'everything that would be perfectly done technically, today',   - with -    'what I actually enjoy doing, today'.

Still not sure yet how we'll get it to work - maybe use background images defined in CSS - so we load up the correct size based on the media query rule.Donovan - hi yea I'm aware of Terry's great library - I'm thinking the imagemagick bit shouldn't be too complicated - it's the mod-rewrite bits and the http headers (particularly as WebDNA 6.2 on CentOS doesn't let you define the content-type headers) that I can see being awkward.- Tom
