The word "yes" is appearing in my source code above all HTML

    This has been taunting me for a while now… the word “yes” is appearing in my source code in front of all HTML (and showing up on my rendered pages as well).

    Snippet:

    yes<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html >
<head>...


    No problems with the site anywhere (as far as I know).

    I’m assuming this is some issue with my index.php or path.php files since they run before the HTML is outputted, right? I have obviously looked in my templates and no issue there.

    Any ideas?

    What version and build of EE are you using? The obvious place to look for something like that would be in your index.php file. It might be easier to simply replace all your files (essentially like a build update), upgrading to the latest version and build in the process if you haven’t done so yet.

    I’m using 1.6.8 Personal, and I have updated somewhat recently and the problem was occurring before and after the update.

    My index.php is exactly out of the box.

    Could it have something to do with the

    $qtype = 0;

    variable?

    No, it really shouldn’t. Do you have this on other, non-EE pages as well? Create a test.php with nothing but

    <?php phpinfo(); ?>

    in it and put it on your server. Can you link to it?

    I can view test.php just fine, and there is no “yes” in the source code. So at least that narrows it down to EE stuff.

    It certainly looks that way. My advice, again, would be to replace all of your EE files with a fresh set download from expressionengine.com. Also check config.php and path.php, just to make sure.

    Do you see the “yes”, when you create and view an empty template?

    An extension or other addon with some leftover debug-code could also be the culprit.

    Found it!

    I created a blank template and it didn’t show up, so I copied a template where it did and started removing chunks until I got to the imgsizer plugin information, which turned out to be the culprit.

    I did a little more digging and found that for some reason I was using a beta version 2.6 (which I probably found from the developer in the forum), and when I “upgraded” to the stable official release of 2.5.6 it went away.

    Thanks everyone for your help!
