Hi,

I just discovered something weird in IE with some of my pages, and I
can't figure out what could be wrong.

I've got this page on my host's server:
http://locusmeus.com/test/thumbswraptest.html
And an exact copy of it locally:
http://here.locusmeus.com/test/thumbswraptest.html

In my IE6 under WinXP, the local copy shows the same as in Firefox,
i.e. lightgreen and lightyellow backgrounds behind thumbnails and
captions.
The online copy however, shows these backgrounds as red, which I have
in there to debug - it's not supposed to show, and it doesn't in the
local version, nor in the online version in Firefox or Opera.

So... now I'm wondering if anyone can
a) confirm that I'm not seeing things ;-)
b) explain what causes it?

Can the server itself really have this effect?
The remote server is Apache 1.3.34 on Linux, my local one is Apache
2.0.55 on WinXP.
