    strange HTML rendering a config issue...

    Hi

    I'm trying to figure out why a certain server is rendering out strange
    html
    Sometimes it renders out html code to the browser window. See here:



    The source code is absolutely fine - the page always validates.
    it just sometimes renders out some of the source (different bits each
    time - 50% of the time it renders
    perfectly - 100% of the time the source code is exactly the same.

    Anyone have any idea what could cause this?

    Cheers

    Guy

    It always does this. However sometimes the html code is faulty and
    therefore displays.

    Well obviously it isn't!
    - the page always validates.
    This means nothing.

    perfectly - 100% of the time the source code is exactly the same.
    The source code may be the same, but it's output is different.

    A bug in the code.

      Thanks - very helpful...

      By the source code I meant the HTML source code. There's obviously a
      bug somewhere. Which is what I'm trying to track down - hence my post.

        post the bit of PHP/HTML that does the Title edit box within the Edit
        Video section.

          You are posting in a php forum, so a mention of "source code" is going
          to be assumed to be php. When posting in say, alt.html, source code
          will be taken to be HTML.
          There's obviously a
          bug somewhere. Which is what I'm trying to track down - hence my post
          Well since you didn't post any php source, how could you expect me to
          be any more detailed in my response?

            What is that ] part of?

            You sure it's not the end of an error message?

            <whatever thing="1" thing2="2" thing3="error message [unexpected "]"
            type="text" maxlength....
            <whatever thing="1" thing2="2" thing3="error message [unexpected >]"
            type="text" maxlength....

            something like that?

            Are you populating your fields via javascript?

            Does it happen on all browsers? E.g. firefox in safe mode?
