You are not helping us to help you.  Put an actual example online so we
can go and find out what's wrong.  If you can't do that, post the actual
files that make up your test.

If you do put up an example, it helps if you also make a text file for
every PHP file.  I.e. if your test page is called test.php, you also put
an exact copy called test.php.txt on the server.  If you don't do this
we have no way of seeing the PHP code.
