This is definitely wrong -- A long-running script can easily be constructed to spew out partial HTML and the browser will, in some cases, begin rendering that HTML while the script is still running. If the web-server kicks out a "partial content" or other weird HTTP header, it's entirely possible to get the behaviour you are seeing. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
