Technically "sophisticated" developers don't waste their time on these
types things - on any level.

Apparently, you are not one of thise "sophisticated" people. JavaScript
is used - pointlessly -
to inhibit the mouse function; Not HTML. I guess you know little nothing
about HTML.

I had no trouble getting all their images.

I had no problem with McGowan,%20Rose.

You like to say "sophisticated", don't you. I must say, it's pretty
"sophisticated" of you
to recognize that a "Windows solution" will only work on Windows. Will a
