correct me if i'm wrong, but the repeat attribute is IN the gif file. that means zope is mangling the file.
try creating the image as a file changing its mimetype and referrring it outside zope via an HTML page, to see if that's the case.

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

<br><head><title>the title</title></head>
<br><body><img src="<a href="http://localhost:8080/animGif">http://localhost:8080/animGif</a>"></body>
<br></html>
<p>I also tried to name the animGif explicitely animGif.gif instead of
animGif - guessed what? - same problem!
<p>Any more ideas, please?
<p>Thanks.
