You should fix this :
Security Error: Content at http://jameslupton.110mb.com/Gallery.html may not load or link to file://localhost/Users/jameslupton/Desktop/Websites/Staffs%20Microlights/StaffsWeb/dks/Gallery_files/rss.xml.

and all the other errors first.

Well I don't know much bout all that - i let iWeb do it for me!!

All i do know is that the galleries worked in Firefox 2, and still do in IE7 and Safari, but not Firefox 3.

Yes, I'd like to offer confirmation of this.  Firefox 3 does not support photo galleries created with iWeb 2.X

For example, go to almost any .Mac hosted web page.

This bug impacts millions of Mac users - so it will need to be fixed before final release, or it will lead to much bad press for Firefox 3 from all the Mac sites and magazines.  

Firefox 2.X works just fine, so does Safari (of course).  

I wish I was a good enough programmer to fix this myself...but alas...

Same problem here
The sad thing is the galleries work in Camino Safari on Mac OS X
and works fine on Windows using IE7 and FF2

Just ran accross this this morning.  My wife uses iWeb to build a little site for our family and freaked out when the photos "disappeared" from the webpages.  I confirmed that they are there in Safari on in IE and calmed her down.  This is a bug that needs fixing or the bad press will be overwhelming...

If you want to get this fixed, you don't need to add useless comments how bad this is. Such comments doesn't help and they are just SPAM.

We need a minimized html testcase and with minimized I don't mean a link to a photo gallerie. With this testcase we can see if this is a bug in Firefox or not and we can also find the right Component/person to fix this.

Could you provide a link to what you mean by a testcase in the Help or whatever files for Bugzilla?  Not sure what you're asking for.

I am happy to submit html - but I am like Dan S.  - I need a link to an example of what you're looking for.  I have confirmed this bug exists on RC3.
