Re: Local Server?
When comparing the browser address bars it does look as if the IE7 image
(PC version) is actually from the web server, and not from the PC. The
address is the same length as in the web server version, has the same
gap 3 or 4 characters from the end of the address, and is longer than
the address in the other browsers (PC version).

Re: Local Server?
You are right about that section of the table of images being the wrong MSIE
version!
My fingers got ahead of my brain.
I have corrected that portion of the image and published this new version to
the server, so that it may be accessed at the same URL as the previous
image.

MSIE local looks good.
