Click on "CityMap" link, and a new window comes up with the expected map but the
layout is all wrong (run internet explorer to see how it should look)

In #mozillazine on irc.mozilla.org "bc" said this:
[23:58] <bc> jptd: actually the server is running an asp page and serving up a
NN4 page to Mozilla.
This is an IIS site that uses ASP pages. It does server side sniffing and does
not detect Mozilla. Instead it serves up Navigator 4 only content containing
Layer API stuff.

The component is "non-US English".
For administrative reasons, we classified
"the Americas" as non-English language 
sites in North, Central & South Americas.
In either case, the bug is mine.

I just sent the webmaster of City of London (CA)
web site asking them to accommodate Mozilla/Netscape6
browsers. Let's hope that they will allow for 
the gecko-based browsers soon. 

Accepting ... and seting priority to P3.
