Hi Amos,

Thanks for the reply,

Squid.

That was the trace from squid fresh installed from apt-get in ubuntu. I
wanted to try a fresh installation so I prove that it was / was not
squid causing the website to display incorrectly. It is showing the same
behaviour as the production squid proxy.

The squid conf as being used on the fresh installed squid is here:
http://pastebin.com/5QTAL2px

All I've changed is I've uncommented the acl all src all on line # 578
and changed http_access allow all on line # 629. I have made no other
modifications, and the site still displays incorrectly. Any other ideas?

That is a very valid point about the CSS, I've looked at the source of
the webpage and all CSS/JS seems to come from the same domian and
subdomian, but it is weired that the CSS isn't coming through the in the
logs.

Cheers,

Seb
