Any help is appreciated!!!

I tried your suggestion. The animGif works fine with every kind of HTML.
I really think it's a Zope problem.
Also the gif downloaded from Zope works with HTML outside Zope.
The following doesn't work as well:
Refer to the gif situated on your Zope server from a HTML file outside Zope. - Same problem...

<html>
<head><title>the title</title></head>
<body><img src="http://localhost:8080/animGif"></body>
</html>

I also tried to name the animGif explicitely animGif.gif instead of animGif - guessed what? - same problem!

Any more ideas, please?

Thanks.

Lars
