Hi smart people,
I've run into a weird problem that only seems to affect windows nt and its progeny, like xp and others. My web site works fine in anything *nix, mac, and windows up to 98, but it falls apart in anything that reports itself as windows nt in HTTP_USER_AGENT.
I am using PATH_INFO to put an image in a page. The image won't show up at all in winNT clients. Actually, it will work if I send somebody a url, but as soon as you go to another directory, the images disappear. Restarting the browser seems to help access one directory, but then others will again malfunction. Force reload doesn't seem to help. The only clue it gives is that HTTP_ACCEPT suddenly comes up empty when PATH_INFO is in the url.
I've changed the site to remove the file extension from index.php, but it doesn't seem to help.
I've found a small amount of information on the web about a patch that MS implemented to fix a problem where executables called PATH_INFO, but I haven't really found any coherent explanation for what's going on.
Anybody have any ideas, links, guesses that might explain this?
Here's a sample url: http://www.casaforge.com/gallery/displays/big_shoes/index/on_the__crane
Profuse thanks, Hal
