ico images in web interface

IE6 does not handle ICO images very well in web pages. Thus, your enabled.ico and disabled.ico usually come up as images that cannot be displayed. To solve the problem, I created my own version of these images in GIF format, and modified your display.php function to use the gif files vs. the ico files.

In future releases, I suggest that you may want to do the same.

It is ironic that the icon files are Microsoft specific and yet Microsoft IE browser does not handle them very well? Althought the IE 6.0 version we are using seems to work fine with the ICO files.

In any case, this is a very good point and we will change the ICO files to GIF for the next version to ensure the maximum compatiblity across all platforms.
