I had another go at it yesterday, re-inspired by this thread.

Still couldn't get it to work.  

Uploaded it to a different server, and it worked fine.

Pfaffed with the line and relative/absolute addressing, and got it
partially working on the original server.

At a guess, the browsers adhering to the de facto standard are
adhering to the old 'there are always so many standards to choose
from' rule.
