Regarding LDM 2.2.1:

Maybe to put some validation in the settings dialog to get rid of this problem?

Spooky that the IE/Opera problem remains 100% reproducable in 2.2.1 even with setting:

Thumbs space = "/thumbs"

The thumbnails will not load in IE 6.0.

Tried flushing caches and all.

Can this have something to do with file name, (URL base name), generation for the thumbs?

Setting:

Thumbs space = ""

..and thereafter doing "Rebuild thumbs", (http://www.teflon.net/forum/local_links_admin.php?action=doadmin&dothumbs=1), will make the problems go away.


If not rebuilding thumbs, the problem remains randomly for some of the pictures.

And even after clearing Thumbs space and rebuilding thumbs, there will still be remnant files in the thumbs directory.

Can this have something to do with file name generation for the thumbs and validating of cached thumbs?
