[jQuery] Re: Weird Problem with Default Web Page in Some Browsers

It sounds like some kind of path problem. Are you sure any external JS files are being included/loaded correctly when using relative paths? You might want to try using fullly qualified URLs for them just to be sure.

I dont know the PROPER fix, but if using Apache, you could always use mod_rewrite to specify the index.html when a doc name isnt provided.
