The above URL is supposed to provide weather forecast
for Italy, and uses two images, one for the base 
map, and one for the forecast... the layers are not
properly overlayed (the forecast is shifted to the left).
IE 5 displays the page as expected.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to http://www.enel.it/meteo/indexNs.asp
2. do the same with IE5
3. compare the results

Actual Results:  Incorrect layer positioning

Expected Results:  Proper positioning of layers...

-> Tech Evengelism
The site does:

n = (document.layers) ? 1:0
ie = (document.all) ? 1:0
if (ie){
	document.location="index.asp"
	}

- and something comparable on the ie version of the page.
Since we don't do document.all we end up being served this page designed for
Netscape 4.x (though from what I see the IE page wouldn't look good either)

And now actually confirming. Is Italy indeed Western Europe? The component
descriptions aren't clear on that...

Yes, Italy is in Western Europe :-)
