I don't think so... I tried all I could think of, and nothing worked
except closing Opera and starting all over again.

Oh don't be like that. Actually, I stick with Opera because of its
mail program, not the browsing experience, although that is good with
compatible sites. I guess that some degree of non-compatibility with
Opera (and to a lesser extent Safari) is a disadvantage for me, as
I want to offer website knowhow to a client and assure them that the
panoramas they put on their home pages are universally visible.

I disengaged from website creation and left it to my staff at about the
time when your current site would have been state-of-the-art. So I
never learned to handle databases etc. Now I have no staff... <wry
grin> but some ex-members of staff are very friendly and helpful with
their spare time, and might be able to help me. I definitely want to
minimise maintenance, as I don't want to spend time on that! Would
rather take panoramas or (if strictly necessary) do post processing.

But I love the look of your site, and the way it handles the three
realistic choices of viewer--QuickTime/DevalVR, and SWF. So I guess it
would be more a question of whether you would be happy to have a site
in Japan that looks--apart from the quality and locations of the
panoramas--very like yours, and what payment if any would be involved.

Thanks for the response, Erik,

Roger
