    w3c validation icon not showing in MSIE (but OK in FireFox)

    I decided to validate each page of my site.

    Did the front page, decdided to add the w3c validated logo and it shows
    up in FireFox, but not in MSIE.

    In FireFox, the page source shows

    <a href="http://validator.w3.or g/check?uri=refer er">
    <img border="0" src="http://www.w3.org/Icons/valid-html40" alt="Valid
    HTML 4.0!" height="31" width="88"></a>

    as it should. But MSIE shows

    <a href="http://validator.w3.or g/check?uri=refer er">


    </a>

    The strange thing is that I can the logo ok on other folks pages.

    Well, obviously not on mine, if that is all the HTML that there is.

    All of my site pages are (becoming) PHP and I include that in my
    standard page footer
    <?php include('<site name>/layout/body_end.php'); ?>

    Hmmm, is this more of a question for a PHP group? Sorry, it's after
    midnight & I can't think too straight.

    Any ideas?

    thanx in advance ...

      Without the URL to your page, it is difficult to help.

          Thinking about it more overnight, I reckon that even with the URL it is
          difficult to help: it would seem to have to be a PHP problem - can it
          be that it is serving different code to different browsers? After all,
          by the time that I/you see that different HTML in different browseres,
          it has already been PHP parsed.

          but in any case, the link is http://keellings.com/index.php - look at
          the bottom of the page

          And, just in case anyone here speaks fluent PHP, here is the source of
          my page (I am an experiecnd coder, but fairly new to PHP)..

          <?php include('http://keellings.com/layout/preamble.php'); ?>

          <HTML>
          <HEAD>
          <?php include('http://keellings.com/layout/header_begin.ph p'); ?>

          <TITLE>Keelling s</TITLE>

          <?php include('http://keellings.com/layout/header_end.php' ); ?>
          </HEAD>

          <BODY>
          <?php include('http://keellings.com/layout/body_begin.php' ); ?>


          <center>

              Good.

              Why? What makes you think it means anything at all to your visitors? And
              why are you using HTML4.0 instead of 4.01?

              Looks fine here in both.

                  Maybe an SP2 security thing, or something ?
                  Could try copying the image, and using a copy from your own site.

                      Perhaps you've got some sort of "adware blocker" that's filtering it?

                          If M$IE & Firefox are both sowing different source for your page then in
                          sounds like a pre-processing is being done on the results the webserver is
                          giving back for the file 'layout/body_end.php'.

                          If other people see the icon Ok in their M$IE then it would also appear it
                          checking not only your browser version but also dependant on your IP.

                          Either way, the file that would be at fault is most likely
                          'layout/body_end.php' so that should have been the one you posted.

                          I am however concerened that its more likely a cache problem at your end
                          with your M$IE serving you a cached page.
