hi Surveyor,

for a very lightweight and fast web viewer of massive bitmapped images, see
http://brainmaps.org/index.php?p=brain-maps-api , which features an  image
viewer coded with optimized javascript/dHTML for massive multiresolution
images, like what you would see for Google Maps.  The code is open-source
and should be easy to modify to suit your particular purpose.

Good luck.

Shawn
