    HTML: Bizarre > on my page

    I'm using PHP to generate the following page:
    http://www.spadeapps.com/ecumenicus/main.php

    Above the links on the left there is a > on the page. View the source of the page. I realize the code sucks (being generated by FrontPage Express," but I don't see in there where the > is coming from. Perhaps I am blind or stupid, but I can't see it...

    Any help?

    Thanks,

    Well, for starters, your HTML is ALL hoarked up. You have two HTML & Body sections, one inside the other. I'd suggest getting all that cleaned up, and maybe the offending item will present itself.

    Whatever you do DON'T user Front Page express. It mangles HTML into some kind of proprietary MS cock up.

    Open Office.Org produces some resonable HTML - although not perfect. But used in conjunction with the HTML tidier:

    http://tidy.sourceforge.net/

    Both are free and both can produce way better HTML than Front Page.

    Wohaa! that's some hell of a code man. Like suggested above, use another html editor (or even better, learn html and write it by hand)

    The > is coming from this line I think:
    Code:
                    <td><a href=main.php?page=links><img src=links.gif width=150 height=24 border=0></td>></td>
