But I did notice the Comments and Sign-up links on the left side seem to run
together in IE6 but not in Mozilla.  That and the usual line spacing differences.

WFM Linux build 2003060610.

Do you have "Accept images that come from the originating server only" selected
in Preferences|Privacy & Security|Images?

Jeff: The "Comments Sign-up" displays in one line on my computer. Did you change
the default font size in preferences?

"Accept images that come from the originating server only" was set in both 1.2.1
and 1.4RC1.  But the current cartoon was only seen in 1.2.1.

When I changed the setting to allow images from all sites, I could then see the
current cartoon in 1.4RC1.

If you look at the source of the page, the images have absolute addresses from
www.userfriendly.org. userfriendly.org isn't necessarily the same site as
www.userfriendly.org (although in this configuration they are, the browser is
not supposed to know that :) ), as a result, if you go to
http://userfriendly.org, mozilla thinks http://www.userfriendly.org is a
different site.

If you goto the site using www.userfriendly.org you should see the image(s)
(with "Accept images that come from the originating server only" selected).

Thanks,

Setting "Accept images that come from the originating server only" and changing
my bookmark to use the URL prefixed by www. works.

I still don't know why this "problem" did not exist with the previous vesions of
Mozilla (such as 1.2.1 and 1.3).  However, this not keeping me awake at nights! :-)

maybe it's a bug which is fixed in 1.4. :)

==> invalid.
