I have a problem with loading some PNG images in Firefox. The images are

near as I can tell, it is tall (or maybe just big?) images that won't
load. If I just load the PNG by itself, I see a message saying that the
image cannot be displayed because it contains errors. I can successfully
display these images with either xv or gimp and neither complains of any
irregularities.

Definitely seems to be firefox.

Can you try loading the images and re-saving them using gimp? Sometimes that
cleans up any irregularities in image formats.

I put one of the files at
<http://www.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/dhoworth/f208c50af8a68669c364c22849f1d1de.p
ng

. It's 190 kB and 820x36564 pixels.

Has anybody else come across this problem? Do any of you using Firefox 2
see the problem?

Strange. Firefox for Linux 2.0.0.2Pre says "The image
“http://www.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/dhoworth/f208c50af8a68669c364c22849f1d1de.png
” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.".

Same thing here in firefox 2.0.0.2pre running on Suse 10.2 x86_64. (2G of RAM)
Also, I clicked on the link in KMail and expected it to launch Konqueror.
Instead it launched Kuickshow which complained that is was "unable to load
the image...Perhaps the file format is unsupported or your lmlib is not
installed properly." Possibly the problem. Or not. Remarkably, if I put
the link directly into Konqueror the picture loads. "P00720 Enterobacteria
phage T4 (164) Lysozyme..." And a long list of what appears to be horizontal
bar charts in different shades of blue, green, and red.
