Sorry, I think you misunderstood me! I _don't_ want to stop the gif, but it does after the last frame! -- Now I tried the same Zope page in NS and IE, this phenomenon appears only with NS...
I did understand you, but I could not replicate your problem in IE. I didn't try it in NS as I don't have it installed. So I would say it most be a Netscape specific problem. - Either it is because NS has some abscure bug if the file doesn't have a .gif name with a dot, but as far as I remember you had allready tried that. - Maybe Zope sends the wrong header that somehow makes NS foul up, but when I send a request like this via telnet:
telnet localhost 8080 GET /test/ferierejser_banner_50aar.gif HTTP/1.0
I get this response, which looks fine.

So I don't think it's a zope problem. Have you tried to save the gif you receive and then open it again, if it loops then it is an interresting problem. My bet would be that it is a NS problem. Maybe try it out on antoher version of NS Regards Max M
