Two things...
1) Don't cross post! (thank you)
2) I find this happens occasionally when you edit the files on one system,
and then FTP them to another. Make sure you FTP the files via ASCII (or,
try transfering them between two computers in ASCII mode) - since
Unix/Dos/Mac all have different "end of line" characters (one uses \r, one
uses \n, one uses \r\n), extraneous characters can be interpreted literally
by some systems
This gets NT users all the time...
