shopping_cart.php shows < symbols in some browsers

osCMax v2.0.25 SVN 812

The shopping_cart.php shows "< " across the page that varies in different browsers. Current versions of Chrome & Safari show 4 of them, Firefox shows 1, IE8 shows 1.

Steps to Repeat:
1. Sonic Homework :
2. Add a product to the cart

What I've tried so far...

1. Use developer tools in each of the browsers to try to identify where the culprit symbol is living.
2. The developer tools do not detect it, as in... It does not show up within the table structure for this page.
3. I noticed that in theme/content/shopping_cart.tpl.php there are some "=" signs that when deleted made one of the < symbols stop displaying on teh page, but it messed up positioning of elements too:

'params' => 'class="productListing-data" valign="top"',
'text' => tep_draw_checkbox_field('cart_delete[]', $products[$i]['id']));

I'm not 100%, but is it possible that this is just how the browser reads a portion of code it should not be "seeing"? The table structure itself looks good...

Any ideas as to what would drive this?

Thanks!!!

Confirm that it's not a '>' which is showing due to CSS

.productListing-even {
    background-image: url("images/ProductListingArrow.jpg");

Can we just pretend this question never happened? <mildly embarrasking to put it mildly> Do you think instead of trying to down the caffeine at night I should just go for a brew instead?

Thanks

oh yeah...

Do you ever sleep? lol A brew it is then. Just sent a final invoice. And that will be followed by a brew. Except I'll let the experts pour the pint. Subbed for a friend once and discovered I am awful at it. Foamed up the entire floor. The customers thought it was so funny I made more tips in one night than she did in three, out of pity I suppose, lol.
