images screwed up

hrmmm something's wonky. my site views fine in safari, mozilla and ie on mac... but for some reason only some pictures (if any) show up under ie or mozilla on pc. they just kinda randomly appear or not. right now ie on win xp shows the first, third and fourth thumbnails across the top of the howto blog. grrr. oh wait i refreshed and now none are there. damn.

here's an excerp from my post on movabletype.org's support page

i've been using MT for a while now, but recently created a photoblog to SSI into my main. it all works, except i've noticed that images are randomly missing when i use IE on PC.

[URL=http://www.fif3.com/howto/]my main blog[/URL] views fine in safari, mozilla and ie on mac... but for some reason only some pictures (if any) show up under ie or mozilla on pc. they just kinda randomly appear or not. right now ie on win xp shows the first, third and fourth thumbnails across the top of the howto blog. grrr. oh wait i refreshed and now none are there. damn.

so last night i started eliminating the variables... i noticed that the same thing happens on [URL=http://www.fif3.com/photoblog/]the photoblog[/URL] page (so it's not the server side includes) and then i started trimming down the index template to see if IE was barfing on some code. heh. i've trimmed my index template down to like 5 lines... and still IE on my WinXP box won't show any of the pictures. tailing the apache error log, nothing shows up. same as the sql error log. it's wierd. what IE seems to be doing is loading the pictures and never finishing. it just sits there spinning.

funny thing is, IE seems to do this on other websites too, such as the [URL=http://www.moonpost.com/jeremy/]photoblog tutorial site[/URL]. note this isn't just my browser... i've had some friends verify that their browsers don't load the images either.

any ideas? thanks. -skp
