I'm using PR2, not sure if this is an issue w/ newer builds.
I'm clicking on the above url from an href on a site that is not from the
www.atd.ucar.edu domain. When I don this the two images under the banner say
"Host: foo not authorized". Those images are generated by a cgi script and
*should* result in one of them being a "date" image and a "time" image. Instead
the cgi is not liking the referrer being sent so it's sending back the error images.
I think the problem is that the embedded images (img src="") tags in the
ucar.edu page are being sent w/ the original URL referrer as opposed to the
referrer of the main html doc at ucar.edu.
Embedded images need to have the referrer of their encompasing html doc.

re-opening. this is broken in the mfcEmbed dist. what does HTTP need from a
packaging standpoint to set the "correct" referer?

it's back in mfcEmbed.
I've verified that another browser is fine, but mfcEmbed isn't.

Well... name a site then! Help me with a reproducible case. The URL mentioned
works just fine for me.

to be clear:
When viewing the said URL, if the referrer is set properly you *should* see two
digital style images, just below the banner image, that display the date and
time. If the referrer is not sent properly, the cgi script that generates those
images will fill them out w/ "88888888" "88888888", eights. To see the diff,
view the url w/ mozilla, and w/ communicator, you'll see what I'm saying.
