Tags being parsed in a browser

Hello,
My problem is that TXP is trying to hide publishing information on an article of mine and in Fire Fox the “—>” shows up twice on the page, which is weird, but it does not do this in IE. Any explanation or fix for this would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Hunter

Re: Tags being parsed in a browser

Your HTML code contains this:

<!--
<p>— Hunter Satterwhite</p>
<div class="divider"><img src="http://www.twoplusonedesign.com/textpattern/images/1.gif" width="400" height="1" alt="---" title="" /></div>-->

The problem is that the ALT text for the image contains two consecutive dashes. When inside a HTML comment, two consecutive dashes signify the end of the comment (two more dashes later on would begin the comment again).

<!-- comment -- no comment -- comment again -->

Try replacing alt="---" with alt="- - -".

And validate your HTML code
