Note that this problem only happens with port 443. With any other port, IE6 correctly redirects on the same port. Port 443 is usually used for HTTPS - for some reason IE6 thinks it should redirect to port 80 in this special case. So, if you're able to use a port other than 443 the missing-/ URLs will be handled correctly. -- Len Popp [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.lmp.dyndns.org/
