MSIE has great deal of problems with mime types (I guess it's for bill didn't
understand how it worked), you may need to add the following two headers
before the content-type
header("HTTP/1.1 200 OK");
header("Status: 200 OK");
I do strongly suggest you drop the broken browser and use only your Mozilla
or/and NetScape.
