I use mozilla, but you are correct... the bug is not producable using mozilla.
However our users use IE and if possible we would like to see a fix.
As much as I'd love to "force" mozilla on our users, that is not an acceptable
approach in our situation.
My guess is IE is translating to the Windows Charset where as Mozilla has
chosen a set a bit more friendly that PHP and IMP happen to like.
Any ideas on how to approach this?
