3.1 Bug? - Images don't display properly after upgrade to 3.1 from 3.0

Question

When pages are displayed after the upgrade, the image appears the first time the page is opened. Once a user goes to another page, then come back to the page with the image, the image is no longer displayed.
This happens when the browser is set to "Check for newer versions of stored pages". When it checks for the new version, the image is not displayed.
This looks like a Bug? Is someone working on a fix for this?
Thanks.

Scott,
Thanks for this information. It is very helpful. May I put you through one last contortion, please?
I would like to see what information is being passed in the HTTP header in the request for one of these broken images. If you have Live HTTP Headers or Firebug for Firefox, or Fiddler for IE, this should hopefully be easy. You don't seem technically challenged in the least, but just for the record, here's what I did using Firefox:
1) Ran the Timesheets application
2) For the very first icon on the left "My Timesheets", I right-clicked my mouse and chose "Copy Image Location"
3) I opened up a new tab in Firefox and pasted the URL and then hit enter to retrieve the image
4) I turned on Live HTTP headers and then clicked Refresh in my browser.
I am most interested in the If-Modified-Since HTTP header. The full request on my system was:
GET /pls/apx11c/wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file?p_security_group_id=191046216955701077&p_fname=eba_timesheets.png HTTP/1.1

P.S. I nuked the Cookie line of the request, as it contained my e-mail address and I want to avoid the Web harvesters of e-mail addresses.
