So I've been all through my code and have been researching similar errors online, but I'm running in to issues where people using IE are not able to highlight text on my web pages. Has anybody else ran in to this?

I'm starting to think that the issue is with the HTML ProvideX code that I'm using to tie into our ERP system.
The pages that I'm serving up with php seem to be just fine as far as highlighting and copying content.

meh... w3's validator never comes out to zero with the providex code we use
it'll probably list 50 errors, mostly with short tags and nowraps
but, because i am desperate, i will look in to those
and, thank you for the help, i do appreciate it

Actually it looks like you got some serious issues with your code since it's finding problems with tags missing their end brackets. This can be caused by a lot of things, but I don't think it's just that you're using some extraneous code. After all, it's saying you're missing the end bracket for your <head> tag, not a usual thing to see so you got things going on there

yeah, w3's validator doesn't like (and never has liked) the providex code i use in the <head> section
the error i get is unique to internet explorer though, so i don't take it personal
