Yes, and yes.

The language attribute is depreciated, type is required.

Your use of 'event' here is the issue. IE uses a global 'event' that
is always available, Geko browsers don't. Depending on how you attach
your onclick, you may have to pass 'event' to the function. Then there
are a few things you need to do in the function to tidy-up.
... onClick="enlarge(event)">
<script type="text/javascript">
function enlarge(e) {
e = e || window.event; // fits both event models
var oSrcElem = e.target || e.srcElement; // fits both IE & others

where does 'imgLarge' come from? If it's the id of an image element,
then it will work in IE 'cos it uses ids as global variables, but...
Other browsers don't. You could use the images collection but you'll
probably settle for getElementById.
You may want to look at the group FAQ for how to support older IE and
