PHP output errors leading to cross-browser mistakes? Mac errors but PCs are fine.

[lkrubner]

I'm facing a frustrating bug. My PHP code gets some info from a
database and puts it into a select. This works fine on PCs but not on
Macs. I'm thinking there is some coding error in the HTML that is
causing it render wrong on the Macs? On the Macs the text is often from
missing from the options elements, as you can see here:
<p>Which member:</p>
<select id="publicpenFormInput3" name="formInputs[cbUserName]">
<option value="x#x#x#blankx#x#x#">No choice made</option>
<option value="106"></option>
<option value="2129"></option>
</select>
Yet the same PHP code off the same server outputs HTML that show up
correctly on a PC and also on Linux boxes. Has anyone ran into this
problem before?

</select>

There IS nothing to show in the last two OPTION elements, they're empty.
Which browsers are showing what, exactly?

Yes, I think maybe this was my fault. Even on the PC there are some
blanks:

Which member:</p>
<select id="publicpenFormInput3" name="formInputs[cbUserName]">
<option value="x#x#x#blankx#x#x#">No choice made</option>

<option value="6">Lawrence</option>
<option value="848">jane</option>
<option value="887"></option>
<option value="902"></option>
<option value="911">misty</option>
<option value="1555"></option>
<option value="1616"></option>

</select>
