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.ContentType 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.ContentType 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.
