Strange! You are getting the psml (packet summary markup language) 
output, not the pdml (packet details markup language) output.

That might be a bug in the Ethereal version you are using. Do you use 
the latest (0.10.4) version?

With the current CVS (very latest developer) version, this seems to be 
working fine, I've tried it.
