Re: [PHP-DEV] strange problem with php/apache/oracle From: Andy Pahne (ap <email protected>)

No, no, you got me wrong. I checked the tags in the first place, even with a
validator, but HTML is definetly not the problem.

If I acces ine and the same page with the two different browsers, I do get
different HTML-sources and not one source that gets rendered differently.

Here is a snip out of the code I get with IE:

[...]
<table border=1>
  <tr>
<td><b> LANGUAGE_CODE</b></td>
<td><b> LANGUAGE_DESC</b></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td> D</td>
    <td> D e u t s c h</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td> F</td>
    <td> F r a n c a i s</td>
  </tr>
</table>
[...]

If I access the same page with Navigator, I get the following result:

[...]
<table border=1>
  <tr>
<td><b> LANGUAGE_CODE</b></td>
<td><b> LANGUAGE_DESC</b></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td></td>
    <td></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td></td>
    <td></td>
  </tr>
</table>
[...]

The first one is what I am expecting, but only getting in IE4Žand IE5.

Strange enough: if I choose to download the page in Navigator, I get the
result as expected (with all the values inbetweneen the <td>'s, but not if
Netscape renders it.

So: I get a different html-sources, depending on the browser. (Sometimes
that is what you want, but then you have an idea, why that happens.)

I'm gonna put the php-source on the net, too. You will find it at:
