[solved] Page in IE6 rendered white

Hi,

I’ve got a section set up which displays the articles of that section. In IE6, the page is rendered white yet the source is not empty. Any idea what may cause this? Or has anybody encountered this behavior? A search for “blank page Internet Explorer” (and a few variants thereof) didn’t yield any results in the forum for me.

My set-up is as follows:

In my main template, I load specific pre-formatted forms by section.

<txp:if_section name="stellenanzeigen">
<txp:output_form form="text-stellenanzeigen" />
</txp:if_section>

The mentioned form looks like this and is supposed to output some text and a list of 25 articles max from the current section (if it’s not a single article)

<txp:if_individual_article>
<txp:article form="single" />
<txp:else />
<h1>Title</h1>
<p>Some text.</p>
<txp:article limit="25" />
</txp:if_individual_article>

In FF 2+ for which I develop first in my process, the code works flawlessly, outputting the text and article listing. Î have no special CSS styling for IE currently, so I think I can rule out some CSS breakage. I’ve checked the site and the problematic page in Opera and Safari as well, works like a charm.

If you need more info, I’ll gladly provide you with it.

Re: [solved] Page in IE6 rendered white

Could you provide actual URL if it’s non-local site? Or even the outputted source code of the page?

But as TXP is PHP software, those examples you provided are quite inrelevant, and they don’t cause it. There probably is something else wrong, like open tag, madeup doctype, onpen doctype, double comments inside each other, js bug or something like that. Or it could also be wrongly used raw php.

The url would be the easiest way. If you don’t want to provide it here, you can, if you resist, PM me :)

Hi Gocom,

the textpattern install is on a local computer, so here’s the source output from IE6: http://pastebin.com/m570f8326.
Maybe you can find an error there,

I’ll check the page in other browsers today as well, let’s see if only FF gets it right or only Ie6 gets it wrong.

Hi stellaris,

The validator threw a few errors in your <head>:
  • you forgot to close the <title>
  • you didn’t properly close the <meta> (> instead of />)

Maybe that’s what causes your problems…
