IE 5.5 SP2 has problems. Not displaying graphics is only one. A nasty pixel
shift between graphics and table cells is another. Back-up to SP1 to fix.
This has been confirmed by Microsoft with a bug I logged late last month.

Subject: [analog-help] Problem with Internet Explorer 5.5 SP2
I think that there is a problem with Service Pack 2 and the generated
Analog
output HTML. Now to be fair to Analog I am not sure that this is its
problem. As SP2 does seems to be causing some odd problems on other web
sites. However;
Problem:
If you apply SP2 to IE 5.5 (I did this from the MS Windows Updates Site)
then the bar graphs are not correctly displayed. What you see are random
little red 'X' symbols. This is normally shown when Internet Explorer can't
find the correct GIF, however this is clearly not the case as (say) 9 out
of
the 10 dashes in the bar graph line are correctly displayed.
Temporary Solution:
Remove SP2 from IE 5.5 and revert to SP1.
The bit of code suffering seems to be would look like this
<img src="images/barh4.gif" alt="+++++++"><img src="images/barh2.gif"
alt=""><img src="images/barh1.gif" alt="">
So one of the "+" signs is not being correctly translated by IE. The actual
bartype seems irrelevant, this line in this example here is type "h" - Blue
& Red, it occurs with single colour bars too.
Any thoughts?
