 I made other tests this evening :
 - With Lynx : no problem, but it doesn't query for the CSS file
 - With Emacs/W3 : no problem, and this time, the trace of the GET
 		appears in access.log
 - With Opera : no problem, the trace of GET appears also in the
 access.log
 
 In fact, it's clear that the problem comes from Mozilla and Netscape,
 but only via HTTP.
 
 
 Best regards.
