Yeah, ASP is server-side technology so this has nothing to do with ASP. Try
one of these:

Here are the response headers for one of your broken pages:

Response Headers - http://home.comcast.net/~symbolsclan/news.php
Server: Netscape-Enterprise/4.1
Date: Sat, 06 Jan 2007 15:46:33 GMT
Content-Type: text/plain
Etag: "b192920d-3-849-459f64e9"
Last-Modified: Sat, 06 Jan 2007 08:59:21 GMT
Content-Length: 2121
Accept-Ranges: bytes

200 OK

Note that the Content-Type should be "text/html" if you want the browser to
treat it like HTML. Firefox is handling your document perfectly -- rendering
the content the way you instruct it.

Bob,

This clearly IS a server-side issue, and certainly *could* have been an ASP
one. One look at the page will convince you that the SRC for each of two
IFRAMEs is an HTML document sent as text/plain. I'm sure you'll agree this
could happen with ASP (although it is hard to imagine a scenario in which it
wasn't obvious that content-type was deliberately broken).

In any case, this isn't an ASP for only one reason -- the document in
question was PHP (and the server was not IIS).

Bob,

I don't understand. How is the way firefox renders html controlled by
server-side code?

Sure, html is generated by ASP, but why does that make it a server-side
issue? One needs to know w=how to create an html page first ...

You're joking, right?

Is Response.Conten tType client-side or server-side? His script sends a text
document to the browser with Content-Type header "text/plain". Is there any
way OTHER than server-side to send the proper Content-Type for a browser to
render HTML as HTML?

Server-side, of course. But knowing what contenttype to set depends on
knowing what html will render in the browser.

And how is Response.Conten tType firefox-specific?

I suspect your problem is developing with Frontpage.

That product is very unlikely to produce cross browser compatible output, is now defunct and I doubt if it ever produced standard
compliant html

It isn't. He actually has an IE-specific problem. IE should not render
text/plain documents as anything other than plain text. Since IE
"interprets " the document to be HTML, it renders it as HTML, giving the
author the false impression that his web script/application is operating
correctly.

Firefox happens to treat the content correctly, which is to say consistent
with the content type provided. To the OP, this looks like a Firefox
problem, when it is actually a problem with his script or his server
configuration. IE just shamefully looks the other way.
