For me, the first few jpegs work fine and then the rest are black from about
half way down the page.

I see the same as comment 2, in:
- Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050519
Firefox/1.0+ ID:2005051910
- Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050509
Firefox/1.0.4

In IE6 the page has all its pictures and no black blocks of nothingness.

Think this is INVALID.
If you right click on one of the black images, and choose properties, and then
paste the URL into firefox _or IE_, then the resultant image is black.
eg: http://www.opencmsbook.com/chapter3_preview_files/image124.jpg
(from the very bottom of the document). But I have no clue as to what IE is doing.

same problem for the same images in Opera

None of my jpeg editors is able to display those images either.

so they are probably corrupt

This page apparently uses some sort of "conditional" comments around the images
that Firefox takes literally:

<!--[if gte vml 1]>
<v:shape id="_x0000_s1025" type="#_x0000_t75" style='width:258pt;height:162pt'
o:bordertopcolor="this" o:borderleftcolor="this" o:borderbottomcolor="this"
o:borderrightcolor="this">
<v:imagedata src="chapter3_preview_files/image123.png" o:title="1043_03_69"/>
</v:shape>
<![endif]-->

<!--[if !vml]--><img src="chapter3_preview_files/image124.jpg"
v:shapes="_x0000_s1025" border="0" height="216" width="344"><!--[endif]-->

Seems like the domain was given up. So there's nothing that could be confirmed.
