I didn't want to try to change something that would work on only a single browser so I went ahead and found a utility that would actually rotate the picture according to the EXIF metadata. I used http://www.pilpi.net/software/JPEG-EXIF_autorotate.php which mostly worked - or at least enough to solve my problem. Apparently win8 only changes the EXIF metadata rather than actually rotating the image. Thus any software that doesn't support EXIF rotation (read: most browsers today) end up with a very frustrating mis-match between what is viewed on the win8 computer and what is viewed in the browser. Sorry - I thought this was something specific to pmwiki which is why I posted here. I should have posted as a rant in a win8 forum... :-) -Peter
