the javascript in tabular.html uses the 'report=xxx' to determine which 
NOAA file should be displayed.  when you read tabular.html directly (i.e., 
no web server), your browser interprets the javascript but refuses to open 
the file, since most browsers now consider opening a file to be a nefarious 
activity.

it just happens that the path is 'NOAA/xxx' so that when you remove the 
'?report=' the url is simply a path, not a path plus cgi arguments.
