I have no clue what this problem is but it has to do with the first half of my code. I have copied the same exact code form another page and pasted into the file and it gives this error in the tag inspector. It removes my opening css tag. You will notice this. If I put the < in front of the link rel tag and save it removes it. Any ideas?

BTW I am using PHP & Mysql

Thanks for any help

<?
session_start();
include("../functions.php");

$db = db_connect();

//first we check to see if we are dealing with only one item and show the form
if (!empty($_GET["id"]))
{
$query = "select * from units where ID = ".$_GET["id"];

$result = @mysql_query($query);

$row = @mysql_fetch_array($result);

$value = "<html>
<head>
<title>MUMS Major Unit Management System</title>
<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html\" charset=\"iso-8859-1\">
link rel=\"stylesheet\" type=\"text/css\" href=\"../main.css\">
</head>

dwmx detected invalid tag inside a php code? If this html is inside a variable there must be something wrong the way you stored it. maybe if you can post the whole value of variable $value that would help lot in figuring out the problem.

Yeah I only posted what got highlighted as invalid code when I clicked the error in the tag insoector. The funny thing is I have copied all of my code from another source that works and still get the error. I use a class and store all of my html in a var and I do this for a few reasons and have been told this is stupid because they did not understand what I am doing but here is my code: BTW Thanks for the reply
