No worries about the demo setup, I could have it up and running in like 20 minutes on my server (proof it is easy to setup). I had just one problem, which may lead to errors down the line : the tar.gz you provide contains a truncated TAR archive (I get an error when opening it with both 7-Zip and Linux tar command). Hopefully only some icons are missing. If you can upload a "better" TAR I'll gladly re-install it.

The way you show the query results is quite interesting. When I start working again on the browser I will have a look at that. You handle paging the results nicely. Although sometimes what I will like is just a brutal query returning 10.000 items and look into them with Firefox search (when running locally performance is hardly an issue). I guess both modes are useful to have. I also liked how everything regarding one item or NPC could fit into one page in the original EQBrowser (I have a 24 inch screen so I put it to good use). I hate Tabs with a passion ever since Windows introduced tham, and that was a long while ago !

I had an error when viewing a character, I don't know if it is "normal" at the moment.

Definitely a good tool with good ideas, I guess the truth for me is in between EQBrowser and the Almanach. Thank you for sharing it, it will certainly help.
