Yes.

On my Ubuntu machine DocumentRoot is /var/www/

On my XP machine DocumentRoot is D:\Server\www\public_html

I have an index.php in DocumentRoot on each machine and link to 
index.php pages in various projects that are in their own directories in 
DocumentRoot. I copied the directory in question from DocumentRoot on my 
Ubuntu machine to DocumentRoot on my XP machine without making any changes.

I'm guessing it probably is a problem with the old pages, but not 
absolute vs. relative references. If I take the first <img> tag on the 
site, put it in a file called image-test.html, with <html> and <body> 
tags around it and open it in Firefox, it displays correctly. I didn't 
change anything inside the <img> tag.

Tomorrow I'll start building the problem site's index.php, one piece at 
a time, and see what's causing the trouble.

I appreciate them. Even if they're not directly the answer, they help 
lead me to what is.

Thanks.
