My page Blows Up Can't Post

I have recieved the code and started to modify it to fit my website. I ran into some issues with the page blowing up I dont believe it is a CSS issue because it is doing some of the CSS but not all something is trigggering it to blow up. The Search page and Results page works fine all the others blow up can't figure it out. All I did was take your code and stick it into a div on the left side of my page. Please take a look ,thanks. I will continue to play around and see if I can get it to work.

Thanks for posting Ryan!

I just responded to your email a few minutes ago and everything looks to be fine on your listing details page. If I'm mistaken and you're still running into any issues just let me know and I'll have another look at that for you.

Thanks Ryan! Smile

Hey Mike,

Pleas look at these two pages closely you will notice a lot of CSS issues that are wrong, the search page is good but all the other pages are blown up. The template files look fine but when the program makes new listing and homepage pages and places them in the directories, it blows up the page. I am going to attach two links below the search page (good) and the listing page (bad).

http://devreinternational.com/listman/exec/search.cgi - search page (good)

http://devreinternational.com/listman/listings/ - listing page (bad)

I don't think its the code because I re structured it for XHTML strict and the CSS works fine on all the other pages its only when it filters through the data base and makes the new .html pages and places them in the directories it blows up. Very lost, all I did was take the template code in the _realty directory and placed it in a simple <div> tag on the left side of the page I <!-- commented --> the areas where I placed the code so it is easy to find.

Thanks for your help I would love to get this up and running by next week so I can start teaching my associates how to add there own listings.

Hi Ryan,

I've had another look at this for you and when using Internet Explorer I did notice this issue (I didn't see any errors in Firefox when I originally looked). Fortunately this should be a pretty quick fix as it's something I've run into before.

This formatting issue is related to the automatic meta tag that Listings Manager adds to it's template files. All you'll need to do is log into Listings Manager and go to the Setup Options. From there you'll want to look for "Add meta generator tag?" under "Database Options". You'll want to disable the meta tag feature and then re-publish your listing pages.

This will prevent the software from adding this line to it's pages:

<!-- Last Updated Sat Nov 8 17:41:41 2008 -->

Basically Internet Explorer doesn't like any code to be before the <DOCTYPE> tag and this timestamp can throw off the formatting. Changing this setting should work for you.

I hope this helps! Smile

Hi Mike,

Thanks that fixed the problem I knew it was nothing with the HTML code or CSS issues now I can start modifying the pages some more.

Thanks again
