misc_ is a root level object. Using absolute_url you are acquiring it into
your Instance URL, which is not necessary (and will hamper off-server
caching). Use &dtml-SCRIPT_NAME; instead (which will give you the absolute url
of the root object in all cases):

  <img src="&dtml-SCRIPT_URL;/misc_/myProduct/chooserIcon" border=0>
