URLs to writeups and other resources are a little gnarly.
Example:
http://isites.harvard.edu:80/icb/icb.do?keyword=k16940&panel=icb.pagecontent274236%3Ar%241%3Fname%3Dindepth.html%2Cicb.pagecontent274235%3Ar%241%3Fname%3Dindepth.html&pageid=icb.page118854&pageContentId=icb.pagecontent274235&state=maximize
It would be nice to see if there’s a way to “pretty-print” URLs so that they’re less than 80 columns long and easier to remember. Hopefully iSites has a built-in way to do this…otherwise implementation may involve hacking the Deployment Descriptor file, which is doable but may take some time.

Problem: GIF images for the Gravitational Lens writeup
seem to have been saved to the server as PDFs, and so the image tags point to “.pdf” files.
Example:
http://isites.harvard.edu/fs/docs/icb.topic229257.files/images/GravitationalLens002.pdf

Problem: Certain images are not visible in the full description.
Possible Cause: Apparently these are GIF images but the links point to PDF files, so some browsers (except Camino, for some reason) don’t know how to handle images of that type.
