i had a corrupted lib-common.php file a few days ago and after it was restored i noticed that in the end of all my right blocks there is a lower case 'n' appearing - including at the end of links in native gl blocks like new links, stories, etc.
you can see here
scroll down and look at all the blocks. i have searched the easy files such as blockheader / footer, my phpadsnew code, etc but when i realized it was also in the native gl blocks i figured it must be in the lib-common.php file....??? very odd. help!

n</td>
Look at the "n" just besides the closing Its either in your block, .thtml file or that goadserver is doing it.

thanks for the reply, but that code isn't actually in the block itself - as viewed thru the admin/block moderator
and it is not coming from my adserver. i wish it was but it wouldn't explain how the n is coming up at the end of the native blocks as well.
i have checked all the block files in the layout, where else are the blocks referenced that could be the problem?

Do you have the same issue if you use the standard professional theme ?
If not it is surely a theme issue.
I couldn´t spot it directly in the .thtml files but really do check if you have the issue with the professional theme.

it does still appear.
i changed the default them to professional for a moment to check and the f*(#@# was still there.
it must be in my lib-common.php or similar type file that includes the functions although i am not sure where to look next.
this is a weird one for sure. thanks for your reply.

probably has something to do with a new line return having its slash stripped out somehow and leaving the 'n'
I've seen this problem once or twice in the forums here, and I remember it was fixed at least once (probably by Dirk), but I cant seem to find the thread--sorry. It's here somewhere.

I guess what Machinari was thinking about was magic_quotes_runtime. But if that were on, you would see a lot more of those 'n' characters all over the place.
Since it doesn't seem to be in the templates and it appears in every(?) block, the only file left is lib-common.php. Either try uploading yet another fresh copy of that file or inspect all the functions in there that have "Block" in their name ...
bye, Dirk

It's a PHP setting, so it's in PHP's php.ini file. If you create a PHP file that contains only

What about this piece of code, near the end of config.php?
define('LB',"\n");
}
There's supposed to be a backslash before the "n" in that define statement. Is it there in your config.php?

if (!defined ('LB')) {define('LB',"\n");
