Not only that, but some (e.g. IE8) act differently depending on
whether it 'considers' the content to be local or remote. I've lost
count of the times I uploaded content and prayed it would work in IE
because the wretched browser switched to quirks mode because the
content was local even though it rendered the same thing in standards
mode when viewed over the Web.

Thankfully, I've got a way around this now:- fully qualify content on
my development server as IE8 seems to treat stuff with a URI like
http://devserver.mydomain.local/test/ as 'remote' even though it has a
192.168.x.x IP address and it treats http://devserver/test/ as local.
