Not sure if anyone has had problems with this (or if anyone has a gallery set up like this) but I used Zenphoto to set up a portfolio for a client and the thumbnail menu is constant on the left side of the page with each main image loading in the right.
My problem is in Internet Explorer, the menu of thumbnails refreshes each time a new image is clicked. This does not happen in Firefox or Safari from what I can tell. Is there any way I can reduce the page load by having the menu cache like it seems to be properly doing with the other browsers?

For reference here is the gallery I am working on now: http://www.owensdesigns.com/sratte/gallery
Any ideas?
In version 2 of zenphoto I think I'd do the image serving differently; store the direct URLs to cached images instead of always requesting through PHP, as novel as that is. That same idea should still be possible though with modifications to serve images that have already been processed directly. Anyway, that's for the future.
Try playing with the headers in i.php (at the bottom) and see if you find anything that helps for IE. Do some research into "image caching in IE" or things like that. Let me know if you get anything to work better. Thanks.
the problem like now I'm on my macbook running camino the same cache problem occours here (mozilla render engine) with dynamic cache enabled. even when using the backbutton it still needs to load every thumb again which is pretty wierd.
this topic might actually become my favorite
it just works !
I'm watching this thread with interest to see if anyone comes up with anything. Odd you had problems in Camino webdev, Safari and FF both render fine. I don't have the pleasure of playing with a Mac at the moment so I can't recreate it.
did a little browser test tonight and it seems that firefox and opera on both win and mac and safari are doing fine... the problem occours with camino and win/IE, tried it with every cache setting available no sq6 ;( and since most users are on win/IE and most mac user will stick to there cocoa apps like camino this is sure somehing to look into... will check this sunday if I can find any sollutions.
