When you say "sort of works", is there a problem with it? It works fine for
me as far as jumping within the iframe goes.
Is there an online emulator for Opera and FF I can play with?

Ahh, but if I could jump back up to another bookmark that is positioned
exactly where I wanted everything to line up, then although I couldn't "fix"
it, I could circumvent it.

That I get, but as I didn't want to confuse people too much I didn't mention
what has now become relevant:
I have a second panorama image ('image2') which will be loadable into that
iframe by the user.
* E.g. they click a jump tag (book mark/name ref) on the sea on the left of
image1, and it will load image2 into that iframe, positioning image2 on the
left of the iframe, showing underwater on the left.
* Click the jump tag in the middle, you image2 but the scrollbar jumps to
the middle of image2.
* Click the jump tag on the right, you get the right-edge of image2 and the
iframe scrollbar positions itself automatically all the way to the right.
This allows the user to jump to anywhere in an image, so each click relates
to what they expect to see. That is why I don't want them to have to do the
scrolling, because every jump tag would just take them to the left of
image2. Not as fun.
I assume from all this that there is no way to call 2 jump tags from 1
hyperlink?
