Images at <http://www.ericharsbarger.com> are served through a cgi-bin script.
When viewed through Mozilla, none of the images are viewable and HTTP headers
are displayed as part of the text in the browser (ex: "HTTP 200 Document follows
Date: Fri, 03 Nov 2000 23:09:09 GMT Server: NCSA/1.5.2 Last-modified: Sun, 29
Oct 2000 02:14:39 GMT Content-type: text/html Content-length: 629")

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start Mozilla and enter the URL <http://www.ericharshbarger.com>
2.
3.

Actual Results:  HTTP header info appears at the top of the browser window.
No graphic appears and eventually a timeout error dialog appears	

Expected Results:  Displayed the referenced image.

This server is running (long dead) NCSA 1.5.2, and this appears to be a bug in
their HTTP/1.0 implementation (it doesn't know HTTP/1.1)
If the user sets their browser HTTP version (in Preferences/Debug/Networking) to
1.0 instead of 1.1 it will allow them to use this site, but they may experience
reduced performance on other sites.

Here's what www.ericharshbarger.com says when Mozilla speaks HTTP/1.0:
HTTP/1.0 200 Document follows
And here's what it says when Mozilla speaks HTTP/1.1:
HTTP 200 Document follows

The latter is clearly wrong according to the spec. for both HTTP/1.0 and
HTTP/1.1. Hope this helps someone determine whether/ how Mozilla should try to
cope with this broken server. NS 4x worked because it only spoke HTTP/1.0
