Comment boxes do not display when viewed with IE

I am using WordPress 2.0.1 with the amazing-development theme which was downloaded from http://www.amazing-development.com

The Problem:

My comment boxes do not show on IE but do display on FireFox and Netscape. Seems there is a code error. I know how to read HTML code but I do not understand PHP.

Here is the problem…

Directly above the place the comment box should appear (with IE) the text looks like this…

Leave a Reply

You must be logged in to post a comment
<

.. As you can see above there is a open tag “<” showing on the computer screen which probably means there is closing tag missing in the code.

I suspect the error is on the comments.php page somewhere in the code shown below.

<?php if (‘open’ == $post-> comment_status) : ?>

<h3 id=”respond”>Leave a Reply</h3>

<?php if ( get_option(‘comment_registration’) && !$user_ID ) : ?>
You must be /wp-login.php?redirect_to=<?php the_permalink(); ?>”>logged in to post a comment.
<?php else : ?>

<form action=”<?php echo get_option(‘siteurl’); ?>/wp-comments-post.php” method=”post” id=”commentform”>

<?php if ( $user_ID ) : ?>

Logged in as /wp-admin/profile.php”><?php echo $user_identity; ?>. /wp-login.php?action=logout” title=”<?php _e(‘Log out of this account’) ?>”>Logout »

<?php else : ?>

<input type=”text” name=”author” id=”author” value=”<?php echo $comment_author; ?>” size=”22″ tabindex=”1″ />
<label for=”author”><small>Name <?php if ($req) _e(‘(required)’); ?></small></label>

<input type=”text” name=”email” id=”email” value=”<?php echo $comment_author_email; ?>” size=”22″ tabindex=”2″ />
<label for=”email”><small>Mail (will not be published) <?php if ($req) _e(‘(required)’); ?></small></label>

<input type=”text” name=”url” id=”url” value=”<?php echo $comment_author_url; ?>” size=”22″ tabindex=”3″ />
<label for=”url”><small>Website</small></label>

<?php endif; ?>

<!–<small>XHTML: You can use these tags: <?php echo allowed_tags(); ?></small>–>

<textarea name=”comment” id=”comment” cols=”100%” rows=”10″ tabindex=”4″></textarea>

<input name=”submit” type=”submit” id=”submit” tabindex=”5″ value=”Submit Comment” />
<input type=”hidden” name=”comment_post_ID” value=”<?php echo $id; ?>” />

<?php do_action(‘comment_form’, $post->ID); ?>

</form>

Would appreciate any help in solving the mystery.

Thanks,

Willy
