Freaky problem

zzz

I have an odd occurrence on a site that I've never seen.

All links ina file that's in directory are gone. Here's what happens.

I create a blank file with simple HTML links in it (test.php) and drop it to my site's root level (http://mysite.com/test.php)

<a href="">test1</a> | <a href="index.php?test2">test2</a>

test1</a> |
Everything works well and i see something like:

test1 | test2

But if I create a directory and put the file there (http://mysite.com/dir/test.php), the link that has anything between quotes disappears.

test1 |

This is something new. It never happen that way before. I'm totally confused...

Any cyber exorcists out there?

Which flavor of web server?

Linux, Apache/2.2.3 (CentOS)

I've got other sites on it and they're fine. And this domain was fine before.

If you view the source of the page, what does it look like?

It just had no links. The link tags acted as comments...

I think it's the browser issue or perhaps a combo of browser+ OS.

I had all sorts of problems on XP with FF and XP w/ IE

Just looked with Ubuntu + FF and it works just fine.

Earlier today I could not access help.godaddy.com subdomain using XP and now had no problems on Linux...

Freaky.

I suspect we need more info/actual code to see what's going on. I'd suggest first running the page through the HTML Validator to find out if there are any errors that need fixing, as when your HTML in invalid, then browsers are reduced to making guesses and assumptions as to what you intended, and they likely will not all make the same guesses.
