Never mind. This is totally a Drupal 6 thing. I found a solution---makes no sense--but it works. For any Drupal folk -- I changed the 'input format' to 'php code' and it seemed to fix it. Never mind that this particular page body field has only js, html and css. (Or that there is another instance of 'javaImageSlider' (different theme,) running in "Full HTML" (in a block,) on another page of the same site.) Weird.
