[WSG] IE returns a blank page

2005-01-23 Thread Juha-Markku Liikala

Hi,

This is my first post on this wonderful list. I have a major problem with
IE6. Try to visit this page: http://www.juhaliikala.com

It validates perfectly and works with Firefox and Netscape without any
problems...but with IE. Well, for me anyway, it returns only a blank white
page with the following content:

!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN
HTMLHEAD
META http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html;
charset=windows-1252/HEAD
BODY/BODY/HTML

What on earth could be causing this? Other subpages of that site DO work
also in the IE (e.g. www.juhaliikala.com/about/). I'm very confused about
this...any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance. :)

Ps. The site itself is still under construction, but if anyone can give
any tips  pointers about how to make it better, please do :)

I can't figure out what can be causing the problem, because it doesn't
work with any of my friends computers either...

this is so weird...

Sometimes simply clearing my browser cache does the trick for me - 
although I'm sure you've already tried this.

We had this problem too ... It had something to do with the Proxy server
... If you view the source ... Do you just get the two tags
HTML/HTML   nothing inbetween?

Re[2]: [WSG] IE returns a blank page

2005-01-23 Thread Christoph Mandl
Hello Liikala,

  try to leave out the first line of your code:
  ?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?

  Perhaps IE goes to Quirks Mode because of that line...

Cheers,
Christoph

It sounds like the IE6 session bug...in that case try adding:
header(Cache-control: private); // IE 6 Fix.
after a session_start() call if there is one, or anywhere before sending 
output to the browser.
