often times you can get wack characters when working in UTF-8 Unicode, check to see if you editor is reading the document as such.

that doesn't seem to be a problem, any other suggestions?

It looks like it's something in the banner_and_links.php file.

Are you able to post that file up? Or at least everything above where it outputs <div class="banner">

Try replacing:

Code:

<?php include('banner_and_links.php');?>

with:

Code:

<?php require('banner_and_links.php');?>

Also, with you not having any script embeded within banner_and_links it could actually be saved with a .html extention.

can't alter code till i'm in work on mon, will try that then. i inherited the site and was going to change the doc to .html from .php but didn't have time

require and include do the exact same thing except require will terminate the script and produce and error.

My suggestions maybe try deleting everything before and including:

Code:

<div class="banner">

The retype it. It's possible someone inadvertently added some odd character codes to the file. ie alt+some random numbers or some stupid thing like that.

or

if you don't execute and php in the included file and is just html you could try file(), readfile(), file_get_contents(), fread(). they all do pretty much the same thing reading a file to a string or array.

change the extension of the include to .html and load it up in your browser so you can do a "view source" or whatever to see if it is a php issue or there is just a duff character in there.

If you then find where that character is and delete all the whitespace before and after it, and rewrite a bit of the html around it, then you may find it was just some random typo.
