[mapguide-internals] changing mapguide's image type

[Paul Spencer]

A quick search of google didn't reveal any stunning revelations on  
this so either it doesn't or not many people have switched to ie7  
yet.  I'm using IE 7 on one machine and haven't had any problems with  
the method I outlined so its still compatible I guess.

Cheers

Paul
