hello again, this is a reply to my own message. I have found a way to overlap one image onto another on my web page. There is a program in the imagemagick package called combine. It did exactly what I wanted. If anyone had a similar experience try the combine command. Thanks for the help. Paul

I could be wrong but... assuming you use the same name for the picture as you referenced in the img tag of the html file you should be able to use the meta refresh tag with a setting of 60. This will force most later browsers to refetch the contents of the page. (html and associated images) This would result in the new image of the same name to overwrite the old on the display and in the users cache. I'm sure there are more elegant solutions. (This one forces a complete reload of all text and images on the page, IIRC, not just reloading the picture.) It should do what you want though.
